2nd version :I reread the keys of Genus, I confirm
Monophadnoides.
For the Science this Genus has only 2 species, thus I consider that our capture is
ruficruris.
It is a
var. (maybe only French ?) of this species.

Determination of Genus & speciesCharacteristics of our capture :
Antennae with segment 3 longer than segment 4
Vein A2 rectilinear.
The Veins M & 1m-cu do not converge the one on the other one
Hindwings with one Cell 1M closed
Claws with an enlarged basal lobe (The lobe of Claws is visible on our photo of the Legs 3)
Only the Genus Monophadnoides has these characteristics [Claremontia has the hindwings without Cell 1M closed, Monophadnus has not the Claws with lobe]
The Genus has 2 sp. in Europe :
rubi (= geniculata) with Abdomen always black [our capture has the Tergits marqued with orange-red]
ruficruris with Pronotum & Tegulae yellow-red.
according to Zhelokhovtsev : “sometimes Abdomen in ♂ red in middle”
according to Enslin : The Pronotum can be entirely black.
Thus our capture is a
ruficruris of small length (instead of 6/7 mm), but with Pronotum and Tegulae black.

ruficruris was also captured in Italy
