Not sure what the marking on the right hind-wing is doing, but this is Itame vincularia.

If you have lots of birthdays this year, Patrice Leraut's Moths of Europe is an excellent series: http://www.napeditions.com/en/10-butterflies. Four volumes have been published. The fifth, which I presume is the Noctuids, is still in preparation.
