It is either G. ornata or G. distinguenda.

Can you tell us or show us something about the antennae ?
Is the last section only 2 x as long as broad, or more like 5 X ?

Ok,

The antennae look long, in which case we are dealing with a male.
If so, the species is definitely Gonia distinguenda.
If not, this does not hold.

Anyway, it is very orange for ornata.
So ?distinguenda is the best I can do given the circumstances.

Hohtenn in the Kanton Wallis is a very worm place in the southern part of Switzerland.
Anyway thank you for the help Theo!

Best regards
