I don't think Ardozyga chionoprora fits. I thought it could be an Opogona sp. but I couldn't get one to match.

No Don, Agonoxena phoenicia is not right either in my opinion.

Not sure about the palps. I did not manage to get a side photo because it got bumped by a beetle, flew away and never came back :-(

Maybe Gelechioidea or maybe not ?

I hope it comes back one night so I can take better photos.
