Quite certain this is not achilles. Compare with Morpho helenor achilleana and allied populations along eastern Brazil south into Argentina (i.e. achilledes/trojana, pindarus, & anakreon). Note the dark blue veil (the wing area between the blue bands and the body)
Hi Luciana, I can see you have two different butterfly species here, I suggest you to put the second one as a different spot
this looks a lot like my spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6022467
