Micro query Longwick

I wondered whether this small tortrix might be a Grapholita like Lobarzewski? It is around 6.5mm (W/L) and although not visible in the photograph in some lights has an almost "metallic" sheen?

Advice welcome!

    Hi, not great detail in that photo, but it looks most like the Cherry-bark moth, Enarmonia formosana to me.

    I agree with Adam. If fresh, a stunning little moth when you look closely at it.
