Hodges #5435 - Changeable Grass Veneer Moth? - Fissicrambus mutabilis
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida, USA
September 10, 2014
Size: ~11mm length
At outdoor light. Would be September entry for Florida if confirmed (Note: the images needed some sharpening using an editing tool because they were somewhat blurry due to being taken free-hand under an incandescent outdoor lamp.)

Not F. haytiellus
Looking at other ID possibilities among the MPG images, only Fissicrambus haytiellus comes close in my opinion, but the pattern along its costa, the distribution of white and the spot pattern above the white do not match well and perssuade me rule it out for my moth.
