      First comment on FB suggests family Thyrididae. Seems a good hint. This is an Asian species so not a match but has some resemblance:

        This genus (Collinsa) has potential:

        Rhodoneura sp. too, but geo distribution doesn’t match...

        I’ve tried fixing the bottom link in my first comment, but can’t get it to turn blue. And, I forgot what you told me about copying links, haha...something about “don’t copy the blue...” Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago

        It's not your fault. The last time was a different problem, it concerned a URL with spaces in it. Which web masters should never do, as there is no way to detect when a URL begins or ends.
        
        This time, the problem is that the URL ends with .htm instead of .html. Which means JD cannot detect the end of the URL as it's looking for .html. This too is something that websites can do but really shouldn't. Posted 6 years ago

        Thanks, Collinsa looks really good! Do you know what this means? Collinsa ferreicepsDHJ01
        
        A species complex, perhaps? Posted 6 years ago

        I think the DHJ refers to the license holder: Daniel H. Janzen, who is listed under the photos for this species. I’m not sure what the 01 means though. Ferreiceps would be the species name. Posted 6 years ago
