The fringe is fine for Prays atomocella
in the guide here, but the spots and antennae seem wrong and you would need to have Wafer Ash (Ptelea) nearby.

I like something in...
Yponomeuta better, but I'll wait for one of the mothies to come along and give you something more definitive. I would have said Y. multipunctella, but none of the specimens in the Guide have your antennae color or the coloring of the fringe along the rear end...
