Yep. look rather like Tineola bisselliella - plain yellow wings, orange 'hair' , mouthparts ...

Acrocercops irrorata is longer and skinnier and does not visit flowers in my experience.

Glyphipterix meteora

WendyEM wrote:

Yesterday

I am going by the markings on the wings, posture, tufted 'hairdo' and eye caps. None of which Tineola bisselliella have. The left antennae is a bit striated. I think the problem is the field of focus.
