Caligo sp.
This specimen had around 15 cm of wingspan. It was difficult to photograph it because of the position it was at.
Thank you, Bayucca and Ashish. When I took off, I briefly saw some blue on its wings, and that made me think at Morpho.
I think Bayucca is correct...

Sergio, this is a Caligo sp., not Morpho. I try to get closer, but it is quite a tricky group.
