Yesterday I found this beauty on the windowsill of my apartment. Pseudolynchia? Which one? (As far as I found Pseudolynchia was never recorded for Russia)

Check Pseudolynchia canariensis, which is found on the common city pigeon Columba livia. In the United States it is only in the warmer states.

John and Jozef, thank you!
Pigeons are just nesting in the attic above me.

Alas, I'm the 2nd. Accordingto Jozef Obona's reference the 1st record was in 2015 in Nizhny Novgorod.

It turned that Pseudolynchia was freshly recorded for Minsk, Belarus too
