I just noticed that there were different pictures first. I think this one might nevertheless be an Oleria sp.
thanks bayucca...I wasn't even in the right genus!
@Juan: Unfortunately the link has a wrong ID. It is Greta organe oto, not Oleria rubescens.
Juan, neither one of our suggestions has a range to Colombia. However, if you check out the top of the wings I think you will see that the Vicina is more similar.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasswing_Butterfly similar to the one I shot in costa rica but yours is gorgeous! http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/6340141
Is OK. BTW: welcome to Noah and thanks for sharing such nice spottings with us :-)
For the first picture perhaps the ID is the same as for this other spotting: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/5886368
Pretty pictures, Nicolas! can you place each animal picture on a separate spotting to facilitate people to suggest you IDs for your spottings? Also try to add information about where you have seen the animal, describing the circumstances for the spotting.
