Dinia mena
large, furry red and black body
edge of tropical rainforest
I spotted this on the same patch of Ageratum as my last spotting. I was really happy to see the first clearwing, I couldn't believe that I saw another and then another!
Thanks bayucca for the species ID, no need to apologize. Thank you Scott, Mona, injica and Gerardo for the comments.
I apologize, but it is the other one: Dinia mena. Almost identical and yet slightly different if you look at the "tail" and the squared black patch. To my knowledge there are no reports of Aeagrus in Colombia.
