Looks to me like it is definitely a Pterinochilus of some kind. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say P. murinus (dark color form). And it looks to be a mature male. I'll have someone else look at the picture to verify and let ya know for sure.

OK, it looks like it is actually Pterinochilus chordatus. Mystery solved!
