I think it looks more like a Carposinid in shape but no obvious scale tufts. Hmmm...

I spent years saying 'isn't this a Carposinid' - mouth parts? amphora-like antenna pose? Kept being told no. I got tonnes of them, others not. When I finally decided on this ID I found a ref (not sure which) that said they eat Araucariaceae - I mothed beside a Norfolk Is Pine in my garden
