This is about the best I can get. Still not perfect by any means

The background is quite greenish (especially at the bottom) - perhaps olive-greenish, and just like the head of the pin. I can't see the sides of the pronotum, and the pronotum itself needs to be in good focus.

The size and shape of everything reminds me of Imbrius acutipennis (female) which is very common in Sabah. In the male I. acutipennis, the 3rd, 4th and 5th antennal segments are significantly enlarged apically. If the background is supposed to be pure white, but appears as greenish or yellowish, then the color is not very true.

Here is a male I. acutipennis
