Do any Lecithoceridae have a white head ?

This specimen of L. imprudens appears to have a whitish head.

Haven't found any Lecithocera (genus) moth on iNaturalist or the ALA with a white head.

@ibaird @donhe the antenna don't look right, but it was moving so quickly I can't be sure. It was definitely brown but a very slight purplish tinge, and a faint mottled pattern. Cream/white head and thin black antenna.

The antennae look a bit shorter than the forewing length.
