    Thanks! I'm thinking these leaf-like moths are highly complex. Superficially they look very similar but they could all be different species.
    
    By the way, here's a great set from Ecuador (as you can see on the map we're very close to it):

    IDs are mostly partial and high level, but sometimes it can be a starting point. Posted 6 years ago

        Ugia sp. is also very similar.
