Sure : this is a male of Temnosceloides excavatipennis Breuning & Téocchi, 1973 (Stenobiini).
This uncommon species has been recorded for the first time from Cameroon (Lolodorf) by Téocchi (1993).

Now, the name of this species is Temnosceloides hamifer (Aurivillius, 1907), since Sudre & Carlo Vitali (2005) discovered that Temnosceloides excavatipennis = Abaraeus hamifer Aurivillius, 1907.

Here the original picture of this species:
