3015 - Eucosma fernaldana
Identified by Cliff Ferris at the Univ. of Wyoming. He says it is common right now at the trap on his back porch. If you could send me a taller version of this photo that I can trim to a square for plates at MPG I'd appreciate it.

 
I cannot find a contact point,...
so if you don't mind please tell Cliff "thanks" for the ID.

a Tortricid
similar to but not exactly like the Eucosma ridingsana shown at MPG

 
Thanks
At least that puts me on the right track.
