It is the male of T. atutumnalis, unless the light is playing a very dirty trick.

Nice picture

Thanks a bunch for the ID Theo!

The picture was taken by my sister, who is much better than me with a camera in her hands ;) She is going to be over the moon when I tell her that her 'bug' has a name :D

All the best

That's why the moon was in eclip yesterday !

'atutumnalis' read 'autumnalis', sorry for the type

No problem, Theo. I realised there was a type mistake :)
