I don't really think that matches -O-
Maybe a Rhachitopis sp. -O- :O^ or Oedaleus sp. O/
Ideas on this as a possibility, or am I getting desperate :-0

Rhachitopis curvipes marginellus
Have been into all sp of Rhachitopis and is the best of all our ideas, but impossible to tell apart the species from the dead ones.

Not curvipes, the wings are longer in your one!

Rhachitopis ceraseus is the only with wings far beyond the "knee" of the hind leg
