On waarneming.nl in The Netherlands identified as Polietes domitor.
Found this remark on the internet:
"Morellia simplex is similar but the genus Polietes can be distinguished by vein M being straight not bent"

best regards, Jaap Vink

I was already confused by the straight vein, but too lazy to look it up.
I had no active knowledge we had more than one Polietis !
