Cicindelidae, about 1 cm; rain forest - is an ID possible?

As far as I know it should belong to the genus Odontocheila, but the genus is very difficult and very rich of species.

I think I have heard that the Czech colleague Moravec is revising the genus, maybe in a few years a monograph will clarify the systematics of this group. He has already published several monographs of difficult groups of Cicindelids, so this is a really likely possibility.

Thank you! I knew those arboricol cicindelidae are hard to id, but i didn't even know the genus.
