Thank you! :) According to Fauna Europaea Germany has all the European Stenocranus except S. gialovus (known only from Greece). S. major is not known from France, Spain and Portugal, so I wonder how likely it is for this species to be found here (FE may be outdated). But I have looked at the british key ( https://www.royen...Part03.pdf ) and I agree that it looks like S. major.

And thank you also for the links (site bookmarked)! The photos are great and indeed my specimen is more similar with the photo of S.major. :)
