Looks like family Pyralidae - maybe Crambus sp.

Well, it looks like Crambinae, but IMHO this moth belongs to a different family, because the palpi are too large for Crambidae suggesting Gelechioidea. I have photos of similar moths, and I could not yet place them into family, so I am eagerly waiting for an expert.
