Pampho sp. ? (greenish carapace?)

Was sold to me years ago as 'pamphobeteus nigricolor' but she doesn't look like any pictures I've seen (was also told it looked more like pampho sp. nigricolor in an older pic but I have no idea, seller clearly didn't either).
Additional 'info': She's reasonably sized (over 8.5"), but her only real distinguishing factor is that her carapace has a greenish tint to it that seems to be getting more obvious from molt to molt (not sure how well the pic displays this, seemed more clear on my phone than on my computer screen, it carries onto her femurs too though only slightly). I'll never truly know what she is without the proper info but any input from knowledgeable folks is appreciated, cheers.
 
I have no scientific proof for that btw just the only green pampho I know n really does look like her 😆 just incase I get wrong off the boffins again lol.

Still good to have an idea. She's a very pretty girl whatever sp she is.
You ever sell her you know where I am 😉

I only said about the proof because I have more then once had someone have a go because I don't know about things like the 3rd setae on the 4th hind leg on the second segment 🙄😆
I think some ppl forget sometimes some of us are just hobbiests not biological boffins, I hope one day to have that knowledge but 3.5 years in I am no where near that yet , miles from it. One day though 😊
