Looks very similar to Chezala privatella but I think it was significantly smaller and it has a row of dark spots in side view which I have not seen in Chezala privatella.

Eulechria convictella would apparently deliver some extra dots, but your moth may have more than the typical E. convictella.

I agree that it looks very similar Ian but, as you say, those dots are still missing.

Could be but it does not seem quite right. Stictochila myriospila has more dots and in particular black dots behind the head and I don't see any trace of them here.
