New genus of Monomachidae?

This specimen may represent a new species and genus of the family Monomachidae: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/47650538

It's a wingless female, but only two monomachid species are known in S. America with wingless females, both in the genus Chasca (https://www.biotaxa.org/Zootaxa/article/view/zootaxa.3188.1.2), and it doesn't look like them because it differs markedly in the form of the gaster among other things.
