About 5-6 mm in length. Not sure if this is Atoichus bicolour or something else that looks similar...

This species is identical to Atoichus bicolor in size and body colour, but has a different shaped head and the segments of the antennae are more elongate (not triangular). But I find the differences are sometimes not clear in practice.
