Leptostales crossii
I shot this butterfly on a light pole at night. It measures no more than 3/4" wide.
Tropical dry forest in NW Costa Rica six weeks into the six month dry season.
It hasn't been barcoded by Dan Janzen in Costa Rica yet, but we've ID'd it as L. crossii based on a moth we have in the states.
