Potamanaxas latrea tusca
about 1.5 in
tropical rainforest, amazon
I spotted this at Fin del Mundo, near Mocoa.
What a lovely skipper! Hesperiidae, Pyrginae, Potamanaxas, Potamanaxas latrea tusca appears to be a match. The other species and subspecies in this genus had too much white on their forewing:
