The antennae of this moth each seem to be about half the length of the forewing. The antennae of Adelidae are each longer than the full length of a forewing.

Is there anything you would like to see on this moth for ease of ID? There are a few about (or have been) so I can take more photos but I need to know what to focus on.

Yes, that would be terrific.. Side-on view? Hindwings perhaps. Close-up o head and mouthparts?

Will give it a try next time I see one. Recently they have been haunting the windows and light switches most mornings. But it is very small.
