Possible Yponomeutid Moth...
... similar to a European Ocnerostoma. Two members of this genus appear on the Hodges Check List for North America, but I cannot find decent photos for comparison with this one. Could be from a different genus in Yponomeutidae, or perhaps a Coleophorid species (I doubt it due to posture and appearance of the antennae) or of yet some other micro family. Photo saved for further searching at MPG.
