Ypsolopha angelicella?
Could be Ypsolopha angelicella. I don't see the missing dark annulation on the antennae and there are darker scales around the color blotches. Looks like Y. angelicella and y. maculatella are soon to be identified as the same species anyway. I hope an expert will give you a better answer. This would be a nice addition to the guide as neither species have been sighted in Nevada on BG. Good luck!
