does it have a distinct pale line down the centre of the thorax & abdomen? I cannot quite tell if it has or it is a ridge and and how it is lit giving the appearance ?

Faded, but does it have a faint greenish colouration overall as suggested by the 2nd, 3rd and fifth photos?

very worn. I don't think it has the line down the thorax & abdomen of Chlorocoma sp.
