Heteropsis sp., Andasibe, Madagascar Tricky to identify:<br /> <a href="http://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=210338" rel="nofollow">http://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=210338</a><br /> <br /> In my photo, quite likely the forewings are obstructing a larger eye pattern. We do see a very tiny eye in the bottom half of the wing. Also, we see a wavy banded edge on the wing. Still both features are not unique enough to come to a single species.
