And of course I forgot to tell, that it was in my malaise here in Loviisa, Southern Finland yesterday.

To me it looks like an Athrycia spp. - m-cu is angled; the parafacial has strong downcurved bristles; and vein r4+5 is hairy beyond rm :)

Should be easy enough to key to species - you can download the Central European key in English from my website, if you haven't got it already :D

Yes, I have the key. It's not here with me, so it will wait one more month. We have three Athrycia- species and I have two of them in my collection. Thank You again :)

I was too curious to wait :) It's Athrycia curvinervis.
