3. Herpetogramma species Crambidae.

This is actually nearly identical to H. theseusalis from N. America.

No. Geina species are found only in North America , Europe to Russia ie Temperate , Palearctic regions.
The pattern on the FWs & abdomen also do not match.
for examples.

Your moth matches Sphenarches anisodactylus correctly although it is more orange brown.
This is a widespread variable pest species.
