Can somebody identify this one? It looks like E. tenax but the abdomen is very sharp-shaped and have withis rings in it.

Last Sunday near Benasque, Huesca, Aragon, Spain. In medium Pyrenees about 1500 meters high. Habitat: border of a forest, above all of hazels and pines. In Sambucus ebulus leave. Size: 10-11 mm long (the same than E. tenax)
