Gelechioidea palpi seem to be clear in photos 2 and 4? if so, it's likely to be a small Oecophoridae.

Glenn, I wont confirm these more recent B. scotia suggestions at this point subsequent to your creation of the new group you foreshadowed for comparison.

After you found the Balstobasidae, I went to "Unidentified moths group 1" to move the Blastobasidae in there to their proper place. Since you had called the first one Blastobasis scotia, I used that name. I didn't realise till later that you had moved it to Blastobasis genus. I can fix that by merging Blastobasis scotia into Blastobasis genus, but the system still has the renamed Blastobasis scotia sitting inside Unidentified moths group 1, so I haven't been game to do the merge yet.

I've just realised that I only suggested the change to Blastobasis scotia, so they won't move out of Unidentified moth group 1 until they are confirmed.
