Retrived this presumed overwintered individual from our bathroom last night in St Petersburg.

Temps here have been stubbornly sub-zero so I doubt it's come in.

Any ideas?

Thanks Samandag but is that a joke I'm missing?

No mention on the internet of such a species?

Hi Andy
Perhaps some obscure reference to April Fool's day.
It appears to be a depressariid of some description, which would have over-wintered indoors. Can't say which from the photo.
