Small ivory colored moth about 5 mm long. Check out the 2 different species of micro-flies next to it in both photos! They are barely visible to the eye and are less than 1 mm in size! May be Pyralidae or may be Crambidae.
Came to an ultraviolet light in the garden, San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.

Thank you bayucca. I had been thinking Pyralidae, but wasn't sure either.
Pyraloidea, but I am not even sure if it is a Crambidae or Pyralidae.
