You had it already ;-)...
Yes, Pale Owl Butterfly, Caligo telamonius memnon.
After a bit further exploring, the scientific name "caligo telamonius" seems to be more accurate for the Laconda flavor than what I suggested above. Just letting you know! I would edit it if possible...
Thank you Casey Falk for the ID, the link and the comment.
