Limnephilidae
Limnephilus - can't tell which species. There is single Limnephilus female that probably represents a new species from Cochise County (Douglas, 1 Nov 1963). The wing coloration is similar/same as your photo. I have watching for an unknown male Limnephilus from that part of the world for quite a few years now. Did you happen to keep this specimen?
