It reminds me of Euxesta pechumani but the head looks a little wrong.

Thanks John, but Euxesta-genus belongs not to finish fauna.
But what about Homalocephala biumbrata.

The broad head is a better match for Homalocephala.

I would not hesitate to identify Euxesta because it had not been recorded. At least one of the species is quite widespread and can be expected to reach Finland soon.
