It may be E. adelaidae but only a few species (like E. depressa) have distinctive features that can be seen in photos. Many species are variable in colour, so colour is not a useful way to separate species. I am inclined to think it is not E. adelaidae because that species usually has translucent margins to the abdominal segments that give them narrow whitish or silvery bands.
