Ancylolomia sp.
This was hanging out with moths but does not look quite right for a moth and it's not something I recognise. About 12 mm long.
Balcony, attracted from surrounding countryside by night light.

Hi guys
No it's Tineidae. It's Crambidae genus Ancylolomia.
Regards
Thanks Stephen, I was confused by that odd shape at the rear and we get all kinds of strange creatures here at night! I'll do some more searching on Tineidae.
Certainly a moth. Possibly family TINEIDAE?
