Bonjour !

I found this Rhagionidae dead, glued in spider's thread.
A male.
May be Ptiolina nitida but I'm not sure for the "squamae with a fringe of pale hairs".

Thanks for your help.

Nitida is Lappland 9nly. Only lowland Ptiolina is obscura. Check my recent article in Nederlandse Faunistische Mededelingen (and/or check my researchgate page)
