Mycomya is correct and because of the shaded veins I'd vote for M. marginata.

Yes, looks good - but I'd like to know whether there are other species to confuse with.
I will compare it with the description in ACTA ZOOLOGICA FENNICA

Good idea - I could not find a resembling one but there may be a lot!

The key rather points rather straightforward to this species, so I log it in :)
