It seems to be Besseria (look at those genitalia)

Difficult genus, I'm not gonna speculate on a species.

I think for that genus you need someone like Theo or Peter Tschorsnig to look at it because it is notoriously difficult. I can try and I would enjoy the chance to see one - but I would have to rely on Theo's help too Grin

I have a reference collections with most of the European species.
You are most welcome to send the specimen and have it checked.
