It looks to be a species of Cosmopterix but that's as close as I'm getting.
Maybe it should go on this page. :-)

Had an interesting micro last night. It was tiny, about 3mm FWL, and I
wouldn't have even noticed it except for the swirling antenna that caught my
eye. Beautiful metallic orange with white bands. I've gone through both the
specimen and live photo plates on MPG and don't see a match. I've sent the
images to Bob Patterson and hopefully will be able to get an id on it. If
anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
