Size 10-11 mm.
I thought it to be Sophronica, but failed to find the species name despite its prominent appearance.

Bonsoir

Recherchez du côté de Sophronica bifoveata Aurivillius ? A priori il s'agit de cette espèce.
Je ne vous ai pas oublié concernant les Apomecyna ! Je vous tiens au courant ...

Exactly! Sophronica bifoveata Aurivillius, 1914.
The description fits very well, except the size. It is 8 mm according to Breuning, but all three specimens I have now are 10-11 mm.

There are a few other misleading theses in the Breuning's key, which hinder identification.

Thank you, Jérôme, for your help.
