Couldn't find any Gelechiidae that were close. Any thoughts?

Anatrachyntis?
Looks pretty close to some of those shown at MPG, especially for badia.

Anatrachyntis?
Anatrachyntis badia and rileyi are no longer treated as members of the genus Pyroderces at MPG following Koster & Sinev (2003), Microlepidoptera of Europe, 5. However, Pyroderces albistrigella remains in Pyroderces so I'm not sure which of the two genera you think this should be. Maybe kick it to Cosmopteriginae?
