Easy one, until you struggle over Mimica and Lunata... https://www.flickr.com/photos/oscarcbneto/43096318351 http://treehoppers.insectmuseum.org/public/public_content/show/11925 http://lelaorca.blogspot.com/2010/09/soldadinho.html http://treehoppers.insectmuseum.org/public/figure/show_zoom/65413 https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/779194-Membracis-mimica/browse_photos Why there is no Membracis lunata on iNat? Because Lunata is obviously a synonym of Foliatafasciata (which also is formerly called Membracis c-album). At least it is indicated when you search for Membracis lunata. And Lunata is not listed in the list of species. So, please, check the story again, yours in Mimica :-)
