Opsiphanes tamarindi or Opsiphanes bogotanus. Did you find it in the middle of San José?? in BOA Bogotanus alajuela is mentioned to be found in cloud forests.
See also my comment on this one, which gave me a lot of troubles! You will find all reference links and hopefully a helpful discussion there!
