I'm not sure but Jorges ID is not correct for me. According to the picture gallery and the Key to the Europaean Russian part the crossveins by P. ustulata are not tinged nor dusted Smile

hmm.. Andrzej, I was fixing... not IDing. Smile it is not certainly ustulata. But I WAS WRONG. There is really a P. usta. Frown Errare humanum est.

From Bei-Bienko:

Posterior half of frons with snow white coating, Mesonotum brownish yellow. Wings with dark spot on subcostal cell, broad brown border in apical half of wing [...] and similar broad border on posterior crossvein.... Palloptera venusta.

Hence, I think Andrey Ozerov is right to think this is Toxoneura (or, Palloptera) venusta.

On a side note: this once again makes me think that one almost never should trust the keys in Bei-Bienko when it comes to describing the colour of the thorax, I guess different colours of brown is notoriously hard to translate from russian into english?

I think the expertize of Andrey is more than enough. Toxoneura venusta.
