Possibly 1702 - Isophrictis similiella
Getting it checked out by Terry Harrison

 
Terry Confirms the ID and says....
"This ID should be administered with a grain of salt, as Isophrictis is badly in need of revision, and there might turn out to be several species that look like this one. But for now, no one can legitimately challenge it."

Beautiful photo!

 
Thanks
I've got a great coach! :)
