Geometrid Moth

Opisthoxia sp.

Comments (2)

Geometridae, Ennominae, Opisthoxia sp., close to Opisthoxia saturniaria or Opisthoxia metargyria, but there are too many neotropical Opisthoxia sp. around, so I suggest you go with Opisthoxia sp. as scientific name. You probably need the native specimen or DNA to get the definite species. http://www.neotropicalmoths.com/GeometridOpisthoxiaBolivari.php http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/TaxBrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=51991
