    Maybe Clepsis consimilana, or something similar? Those two pale spots on the wings don't seem to match up though:

      Whoa, I think it's a full match. Here's several hundred photos of this species from the Netherlands:

      It's very common and has minor variations in appearance. Not seeing any similar looking species in this genus occurring here, so will use it as tentative species. Thanks a million!       Posted 5 years ago
