It looks more like Letis arcana, but that species doesn't appear to be found in Colombia. Maybe there are hybrids or some obscure species? Posted 2 years ago

    Thanks again, that looks like a good match to me.
    
    By the way, I've learned that for this particular location, the filter "Colombia" is too limiting. Check geotags on other systems, there's barely any from this area. So I'm including a slightly wider area that includes parts of Ecuador, Peru, and Northern Brazil. Basically the ecosystem is Amazonian forest that floods (non terra firma). Posted 2 years ago
