Rothschildia triloba
This is one of the biggest and most beautiful costa rican moths. The wingspan of this individual was about 12 cm. It belongs to the family Saturniidae.
It can be found from southern Texas to Brazil from sea level to about 1200 m (4000 ft.).
Thanks to bayucca for the ID correction.
Beautiful! I see that it can be found in southern Texas. I hope to see one here then.
