Tiny moth, I was attracted to the bright white as it flew. Just added a second photo to give indication of its size on a fig leaf.

Not a moth. The suggestion is that it is a White Fly (Hemiptera) in the Aleyrodidae family

Wow, thanks, I did think it was a rather odd looking moth - so not a moth at all :)

I've added the species to the taxonomy. Because of its previous ID history the sighting wasn't showing up in Unidentified Leafhoppers & planthoppers page. So I've re-done to suggestion to move it into that page.
