The archives are working now so I saw the pic. 

It does look like the same thing I saw which I have tentatively ID'd as 
Schreckensteinia erythriella. As I mentioned on FB, Schreckensteinia is now my 
favorite genus name! :)

I'd love to comment on this moth but I haven't received a copy of Jean's post, 
just this reply from Cecelia. Also there aren't any posts showing for May in 
the ncsc-moths archive on freelists so I can't look at it that way. :(

Jean,
 
The interesting thing to me is its legs. They look like twigs. 
 
Does anyone know if there is some purpose to that kind of legs?

  I’ve never had a Schreckensteinia here 
before.  Is this Schreckensteinia erythriella?  Ken had a 
similar one a few days ago.  I have plenty of Sumac, which is apparently 
its host plant.
