But I know why you think this is Cissia terrestris...

This one might also be Euptychoides griphe, but was ID as Cissia terrestris which was ID by ... ME!?

I am sure yours is not Cissia terrestris if you look at the ventral view:

I am pretty sure yours is Euptychoides griphe, Griphe Satyr.

I get lots of this butterflies in my garden, I am interested in the ID. I went to Colombia's Butterflies and bayucca is right.
Augusto, you have this other spotting that looks to me the same but no picture of the wigs when close! and it has another name?! is that correct?
