Mompha bradleyi?


 Am I safe in ID'ing this as Mompha bradleyi, without dissection? The Field Guide seems to suggest it would need genitalia examined to separate from divisella, but the "hourglass" is distinctly buff-tinged, rather than pure white, so I can't see it being the latter. I have had bradleyi here before (gen det), plus divsella looks very unlikely per the the atlas.

Thanks
