Feralia sp.
This is a second species of Lichen Mimic. This one is greener with a different pattern. 2 cm in length. Family Noctuidae. See the first one: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/217... Lichen plays a big role in our forests and many insects imitate lichen in order to hide efficiently from predators.
Came to an ultraviolet light in the garden, San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters. Pictures 4 and 5 were taken on 30 June 2014 in the same place.

Yes Jemma, you are right, it fits Feralia, can't make a match for species though, they make me dizzy :)
