Definitely Phasia, but I cannot tell you which one.
Photo is too blurrered, it might be Ph. obesa, though it definitely looks special.

Thank you, Theo!

I have this picture showing that the abdomen is yellow/orange. At least that shows it is not Ph. obesa, I guess.
Does this picture give you any more useful information?

I agree, I would be very surprised if this is obesa.

So sucoleoptrata is a very likely candidate, I see no other match for this pattern on thoracic dorsum.

Given the recent outburst at Telemark, I think it is safe to call this one certain as well.
