Hello, Martin!

The UK key (by Peter Kirby) splits off vagabundus simply on length: vagabundus is 6-7.1mm, culiciformis and baerensprungi are 4.1-5.5mm. E. baerensprungi has a tubercle on the mid-line of the rear margin of the pronotum, culiciformis doesn't have this (best seen in side view).


Many thanks! Then it must be E. culiciformis, it was really rather small.
