WOW!! So much happened since i posted this yesterday. thank you so much for the SOTD and for supporting the work i try to do with my PN activity!!! The butterfly was drinking the sweat from out shirts so we decided to mix some salt and water in our hands and we effectively got it to pose on our hands. So I see there is no consensus on the species. Anyone want to give the final proposal? If not, I will go with Perisama.
It is not Vaninka. It is for yure a Perisama sp. and for me one of the tougher one! My closest guess is Perisama yeba, but I cannot tell you which subspecies it is.
This one is the same one, no ID:

Comgratulation Entre.. Thanks for sharing..
How come this creature could stay on your palm? Is that magic potion on your palm? :D
Entre, thank you for all of your hard work highlighting the species that may be lost if this development is allowed to go ahead. This beauty has earned you Spotting of the Day. This delicate little butterfly was spotted in an area of natural beauty that is threatened by mining.

Stunner! Not 100% sure on the ID but it's the closest I found find. Perhaps bayucca knows for sure.
