Can you unwrap and unroll them so that we can see the forewing patterns please ?

I think the one in the middle is Pseudanapaea transvestita, andif so the others aren't tiny moths. The shape of the palpi and the unscaled proboscis suggest they might be Tortricidae, but other families are possible. The cylindrical rolling of the wings might help, but not me yet.
