Could this be Phorocera assimilis?

With red tibiae ?
Wing venation looks weird, can we get a proper view on the wing ?
Thanks

I am thinking female Bothria subalpina, which is not uncommon in Noreay.

Thank you Theo. If I key it as cheeks bare, thats where I end up as well.... I am very confused with couplet 76 in Tschorsnig, seems to trick me all the time. In my view this specimen has lots of hairs in the upper part of the cheeks, but maybe my definition of cheeks is wrong...

No, this one is extreme. The feature is variable in some species, such as Carcelia iliaca (not yout problem …. yet) and. possibly Bothria ?
