Not sure but Cyrtophleba is a good suggestion with the hairy eyes and strongly angled m-cu. Smile It's certainly not Exorista larvarum though Wink

Cyrtophleba is correct.
The eyes are hairy, so it can't be Voria.

I'm not gonna guess the species of Cyrtophleba from a picture: those are very similar

Theo, there is only two species on Fauna Europaea, ruricola and vernalis, and in Tschorsnig key, they are separated on presence or not of discal bristles on T3-T4. Not a reliable character ?

My memory tells me that I've seen intermediate specimens, that in the ends proved to be ruricola. So when this would be ruricola, it's bound to be solid. However, I would not identify vernalis from picture alone.
