Is there by any chance a harvestmen specialist in the house who can help me with the identification of this small harvestman?
Found under a lump of wood in a small piece of wood along the river Linge near Leerdam, Netherlands.
I think it could be
Lacinius ephippiatus, but I'm not sure.
Thanks in advance for any kind of help!

Hello, Jan!

I think it is not "spiny" enough for
Lacinius. Looks more like one of the (also much more abundant) species of
(Par-)Oligolophus, but I can't say which one.
