Euprora argentiliniella
ID FROM DON DAVIS: This is Euprora argentiliniella. It was placed in Lyonetiidae in the 1983 checklist of North American Lepidoptera, but Kyrki moved it to Tineidae in 1990, and its placement in Tineidae is also noted to be "very strongly" supported by molecular data in the recent yponomeutoid phylogeny of Sohn et al. (2013).

 
Thank you!
That's means that I have a photo with a new species and a new genus for BG? :)
How about the other photo? Should be move with first or should be frass?

 
Other photo
I went ahead and moved the other photo to the page for this species. Congratulations for posting the first photos of this moth onto BugGuide.
