These tiny distinctive moths keep showing up and I have been reluctant to even place them to a family. They tend to sit with head down, like argyresthiids, but they sort of look like gelechiids too. I just don't know. Hopefully, putting some examples here will reach somebody who recognizes it. Help is very much appreciated!

Not convinced this is the correct ID, but hopefully someone will
see it more easily here and correct it. Moved from Twirler Moths.
