I believe this is Roeslerstammiidae family

Amphithera heteromorpha ?

I'm thinking a Thereutis, but need to check further

No, not Roeslerstammiidae: antennae and palpi too short, eye too small. Must be Tineidae.

That's a little disappointing, although I thought so... I looked at some Roeslerstammiidae and thought that the antennae weren't long enough. I'll keep looking :) Thanks Glenn
