Thanks for help me my friend @bayucca, for the moment no, I just have this pictures I'm sorry :(, but you right, because when I saw the dorsal side they have the red stripe that you said.
It's Diathria sp. for sure, but it is not Clymena. The black part is too large/broad for Clymena. Based on this it is either Astala or Anna and I think it is Astala. I might see there some red stripe around the hindwing, which Anna has not. But it is difficult to see this in this shots and from this perspective. Do you have another, closer one??
