  Agree! Copaxa has some half-matches but Janiodes looks closer. Posted 4 years ago

    I was thinking Copaxa at first too, but couldn't find a match for the squiggly lines. I was just searching google for images of Janiodes laverna because it looks similar and I came across this:
    
    I wonder if this species has a lot of variation and if this individual could be Janiodes laverna? Posted 4 years ago

      I think that's a pretty solid and likely match! Can't be 100% sure, but I find it convincing. Great work! Posted 4 years ago
