I would call it Erioptera s. str. based on the wing veins. I don't know if the genus has been further split in Europe.

John, many thanks. It seems true. According to INaturalist taxonomy, it must be subgenus E.(Eryoptera) sp.
May be E.flavata? (=E.flavescens =E.geminia)

E. flavata seems to be a good option.
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.
