      Nola sp. has been suggested and looking at other examples I think that's correct. Would like to narrow it down to species. Posted 4 years ago

        Nola looks promising, and I'd add Meganola to that:

        Meganola leudostola, La Isla Escondida, Colombia We arrived at the first mothing night in the set. After moth week here at JungleDragon, we got inspired to try mothing in the jungle. On this night in La Isla Escondida, we had our first attempt. <br /> <br /> Since this is the first of many, I'm going to describe a little how I plan to organize this. I'll be using a total list of moths photographed during this year's trip:<br /> https://www.jungledragon.com/list/525/moths_of_colombia_-_2018.html<br /> I may at times lag behind in identification or have an open queue, otherwise the pace of sharing will be too low. It doesn't mean I don't care about the ID, it's just that I may check it later. In the meanwhile you of course are very much invited to help :)<br /> <br /> And I have another cool thing going on, a side project with the code name "Mothopia". The good moth shots (good focus and the moth in a straight angle) I will cut out of its background, to ultimately make an enormous plate of tons of moths, a mega showcase of diversity. It's a tedious and risky project, I have no idea how long it will take, and I may give up halfway in. Since here too the pace of sharing would be too low, at JungleDragon I will share the moths with their original backgrounds.
