Bent-Line Dart
Looks like a Bent-Line Dart to me (Choephora Fungorum). Austin Texas is about the western limit of their range according to the Moth Photographers Group website.

Choephora fungorum
This is the second Choephora fungorum specimen, which I photographed in Austin since we moved here four years ago. My first encounter was on December 03, 2013.
Thanks and cheers -

Andrew
