Oliver,
I rotated and cropped your photo so it's easier to compare with other specimens. In the future, you will likely get a quicker response if you post your moths vertically or lateral views facing right. BTW I agree is probably
Dioryctria amatella
but whatever, it's the latest
Dioryctria
for Florida.
