Tinea apicimaculella?
Isn't this a Tinea apicimaculella? Excerpts from Identification on the page for Tinea apicimaculella: "There is a large brown spot about the middle of the wing and one at the end of the disc and behind it, the apical part of the wing is marked with more or less obliquely transverse rows of small dark brown spots."
"Similar Species: Homostinea curviliniella identical but has a speckled wing tip, not a definite row of black dots."

You are so right Annika!
THANKS for catching this obvious mistake and making note of it so I can correct it.
