poss Clepsis sp.
This moth is no larger than 1/4" long. It looks like it has a clown face pattern on the wings
Tropical wet forest in NW Costa Rica
Interesting in that this family of moths have human like faces! Thank you Toshimi!
Very interesting moth.
thanks Cindy!
This looks like a type of Tortrix moth (Family Tortricidae). Many have faces on their wings. Hope this helps you get started searching :)
