I know two helina's whit crossveins infuscated (H.evecta and H. pertusa)
But is the pd seta not to low...?
And I don't see 4-5 av on the hind tibia..?
And I can't find any pv on the hindfemur..?

So...I think....I look in the wrong way...??;)

Joke

My opinion is that it is a female Helina reversio ; of course Helina det. by picture is never 100% guaranted, but you can verify with your key. It has all typical characters, from what I can see (pd on basal half of t3, very short pra, 2+2 ks, bare eyes, dark legs with brownish tibiae and knees...). This species has often slightly infuscated crossveins, I noticed that, even if not mentioned in keys.
