Agonopterix?
Looks like Agonopterix sp. Check around Hodges 0880.

Steve, thanks for pointing me
Steve, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. The genus is indeed Agonopterix, but i doubt i will manage to get further than that. There are 10 species listed for BC and for 3 of them i can't find pictures.
