I couldn't match this to either Carposinidae or Nolidae. The palpi are more like Nolidae

Oops: N. crucigera, although specimen 4433721 does not have the dark subterminal forewing markings of N. crucigera, so would have to be a worn specimen.

Yes, I figured out later that it must be crucigera, of which ANIC has plenty of specimens. But they are all at least twice the size of Katarina's specimen, and the wing pattern isn't quite the same.
