Gorgeous moth! The moth in the link is Chlorhoda thoracica, which I do not necessarily think this species is, since your spotting has a red forewing outline. http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=396958 http://www.learnaboutbutterflies.com/Andes%20-%20Chlorhoda%20thoracica.htm It appears the genus has different spellings. My suggestion link provides the genus name as Chlorhoda, whereas BoldSystems classifies the genus name as Chloroda. I think the correct spelling is Chlorhoda, as searching Chlorhoda provided many more results of the genus this moth belongs to.
