Did it have upturned labial palps?

Doesn’t look like it on the photos I have!

I think upturned palpi are there, although the photo leaves the possibility rather than confirms it, and that it looks in general like an Oecophoridae.

I could send through all the other photos of this I have if you like? There are about 4 more.

A lateral view would help. Dorsal views sometimes do not show the diagnostic bits.
