I think it's Eois too. This one looks similar, but the range is off:

  Hmmmm, I'm conflicted. It looks like a perfect visual match to me. Not sure what to do with the range, the low amount of observations makes it unclear to me whether it is range bound or just data deficient. I'd find it unlikely for such a species to independently evolve in Colombia and look 100% the same? Posted 2 years ago

    I had the same thoughts. It looks right, but is it? Is there another very similar species or maybe subspecies? Or, is the data just not there to show that this species is also found in Colombia? Posted 2 years ago

      I've come across several moth species mostly bound to Middle America with incidental observations in South America. This could be another case, but unsure. Posted 2 years ago

        It's a head-scratcher. Posted 2 years ago
