  Thanks, I'm quite sure that's right! A pretty obscure genus yet here they have specimens of 6 species:

  Out of those 6, I'm thinking only Tachychlora lepidaria matches. It's the only one having the 3 wavy brown bands. Furthermore, it has several observations near South Colombia / Northern Ecuador.
  
  And then I found Tachychlora amilletes and now I'm confused lol. Posted 3 months ago

    I was unsure of a species as well, until you mentioned Tachychlora lepidaria. That looks like the best match to me, no? Posted 3 months ago

      I'd say about 90% sure, so will use it tentatively, thanks! Posted 3 months ago
