I went through the live MPG Eucosmini and from #0000 to the end of Tineoidea, but I didn't see a match. It looks a little like Diachorisia velatella to me, only without most of that species' larger markings. Also, the specimen above looks like it has raised scales (visible in dorsal photo) about three-fourths of the way to the wingtip, and I don't see raised scales on D. velatella. Any ID help would be welcome.

Came to UV light.
