May 17, 2009, Naro-Fominsk, Moscow region, Russia. Male: wing length 12.5 mm, body size 11 mm. Pretty common. Wing pattern matches that in Pierre (Faune de France, 8, Fig. 464), but it seems that cx are grey instead of yellow...

While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

I reckon that this is Limnophila schranki Oosterbroek.

The bunch of hairs near the tip of the inner dististylus is quite distinctive.
Also in Denmark a numerous spring/early summer species.

Walther
