Moved
Moved from Moths. Perfect match with Bob's and we certainly have Eryngium around. Thanks

possibly close
to Mompha eloisella, as Mark mentions, but almost appears to have two brownish transverse bands. A side view would help but they don't always wait on us! :)
Thanks for bringing my attention to this one. Sorry, I was no help.

 
1808 – Coleotechnites eryngiella?
What do you think of 1808 – Coleotechnites eryngiella?

 
Thanks, we'll let it sit for a while,
but it can always get frassed if it turns out to be unidentifiable without the side shot.

Mompha eloisella
Not an exact match but has some similarities to Mompha eloisella.
