 Hi,
unfortunately, it could not be determined according to this photo. But in The Neetherlands is only P. litura according to fauna Europaea. (P. litura has long setas on R 3+4, P. intermedia has not, P. discoidea has not a black spot between antenae.

 Hi Robert,
I am sorry - my mistake, R 4+5 is correct (4. vein from for margine of the wing, near before r-m crossvein).
