I think Ilione lineata. Isn't there a subalar seta present? And some veins is pale.

I tend to say Elgiva solicita too.
In Belgium, I. lineata is extremely rare, so caution in necessary in ID of Ilione. We do have the very common I. albiseta too.

I compared pictures and E. solicita seems to be correct. I checked my collection and it seems to be only Ilione. I am a little confused when Ilione keys out with subalar setae present in Fauna ent scand. and I can't find any on I. albiseta only on I. lineata.
