spelling
I'm sure you meant NeCtopsyche.
Thanks for the ID; I finally tracked down a couple of photos for this one, put some info and links on the new species page, and moved the image there.

A guess
Looks to me like a washed-out ermine moth, e.g. Atteva.

trichoptera
looks to me to be a caddisfly, perhaps in the family Leptoceridae

I agree
on caddisfly, and probably Leptoceridae; shot a similar one a couple of weeks ago. Yours looks similar to the photo here but unfortunately it's unidentified beyond family
