Thank you Theo. Following the Central European key it maybe A. nudibasis or A. maksymovi : bristles on r1, r4+5 and cu1 are present, and r1 above only at its distal 1/3 with bristles. Is this right?

Negative.
I see setulae all over vein R1.

By the way, it is very simply A. lamia. The apical crossvein is missing !
