User's notes

Size about 8 mm. Two individuals, initially I thought they were different species as one appeared much lighter coloured and had the wings closed much more tightly, but on inspecting the photos they are probably the same, maybe male and female?

I think male and females look alike the paler individual may have bene recently emerged but I am only guessing
