0690 -- Acrocercops Moth -- Acrocercops sp. ?? [ hypothetical ]

The photographs of this tiny moth are too poor to permit proper comparison with those of known specimens. The pattern of marking are, however, somewhat suggestive of the example of Acrocercops arbutella shown on Ron Snyder's website. I will have to await another opportunity with a better camera to nail down the identity of this species.
