Saw several that looked the same, two individuals shown. Most were ca. 0.5 cm, the one in the first two pictures was bigger (ca. 1 cm).

The first two pictures is a male L. lanarium - see the distinctive small kink at the tip of the antennae. The third one is possibly L. (Homalictus) sphecodoides, but not clear enough.

Thanks for letting me know, PeterA - that's interesting! And yes, my camera isn't very good with tiny insects unfortunately
