It's different from the other two photos so it is not Methona confusa but there are many clearwings so it will take some time to find the right one. Posted 8 years ago

    I think it's Dircenna adina, although the references are somewhat confusing. There are a few similar ones like Dircenna dero and Godyris zavaleta.
