Marpesia coresia is not really wrong, but according to BOA this one is Marpesia zerynthia, Waiter Daggerwing. There are two subspecies Marpesia zerynthia dentigera (= Marpesia coresia) from Central America South to Northern South America and Marpesia zerynthia zerynthia of Brazil. I will re-check later, if yours actually is Marpesia zerynthia zerynthia.
