Antaeotricha humilis
I *think* this is a substantially worn individual of Antaeotricha humilis (Elachistidae).

 
Antaeotricha agrioschista?
It looks like there could be at least 5 good eastern species going under the name humilis based on BOLD barcodes, see Info page, but this seems different from those and Ann's other "humilis" example. See Antaeotricha agrioschista (Meyrick, 1927:365), TL: Alpine, TX, and pl. 8, figs. 1-1b (holotype w/ ♂ gen.) in Clarke (1955). Despite being worn, agrioschista seems more similar and location seems reasonable.
