Anacampsis rhoifructella

I would suggest Anacampsis rhoifructella, as seen here. It does look a lot like some of the Dichomeris spp., but the labial palpi are slightly more slender and needle-like than in Dichomeris (and are not tufted, as they are in some Dichomeris spp.), and the pattern of spots on the forewing is slightly different from that seen in Dichomeris spp.

Anacampsis

I wondered about the palp difference. Thanks

Dichomeris?

Might be Dichomeris inversella-kimballi species group
