Limacodidae, Natada sp. It is not Fusca, not Daona, not Lalogamezi, not Kokii, not Subpectinata, not Semivitrea (which however looks the best), not Michorta. That are the ones I know, there are about 43 species in Costa Rica, some are supposed to endemic. Some are knewly detected only in 2000. So I can't get closer than the genus Natada sp.
