  It's stunning indeed! I don't have a single lead or starting point for the species.
  Peter, not sure if you're on FB, but sometimes as an alternative avenue when we get stuck, it's worth a try to post in some of moth groups there. Posted 5 years ago

    I post on a Butterfly/Moth Colombian group. Once in a while I get an ID there. Posted 5 years ago

      That's great. I use these 2 groups sometimes:

      Very often you're not helped, it really depends on the right person seeing it. But if you tried everything else, I definitely recommend it. Posted 5 years ago

        I hope someone can ID it! It is such a stunner! I couldn't find any matches for that incredible color. Posted 5 years ago

        Totally agree. The Leps app also has no idea, not even a basic shape recognition. Posted 5 years ago

        That looks like a useful lead, check out this species:

        Patterns/lines/spots matches exactly, only the color seems much different. Posted 5 years ago

        Yes absolutely a match except for color. I have a second photo that is less colorful. I will go with the ID until disputed or corrected. Posted 5 years ago, modified 5 years ago
