I don't know what it is either. It looks like a dead fish.
Interesting colour.

It seems like a Lepidopter which it's antennae are holded against the body.

Hello Ronny,

This is a moth of the Gracillariidae family, genus Caloptilia, either C. elongella or C. betulicola, can't tell for sure, they're very similar.

Best regards,
Dmitry

You can see several Caloptilia in a same pose from there:

Such a funny pose. Isn't it?
