Rhinophoridae ... possibly Paykullia?

I was thinking of a female Stevenia :S :@ This is the right moment to ask the question: Does anybody know how to separate Stevenia and Paykullia?? :| I have those two all mixed up :(

Paykullia usually has dark wing veins but I have seen a few that are almost clear ... it could still be Stevenia so don't worry. Let's wait for one of the others ;)

Piluca is right, it is a Stevenia.
Very difficult group.
Looks like atramentaria (or deceptoria)
