Ghost Moth

A very tiny moth clinging to a plant (a type of wild grass?)

This is a highly cropped picture.  

The moth is actually about the size of a finger nail.

I do not know what type of moth it is, 

so ID help is appreciated!

EDIT - one of my contacts on social media helped to identify this as a Snowy Urola moth.  

Have a lovely day!
