Sorry bayucca the fun is over. It's a Noctuid.
There are 2 species of Caramello, Caramello durus and Caramello mollis. Personally I prefer Caramello mollis, as a professional I prefer Caramello durus.
Ha! Such names are fun while they last Doc. Hopefully not too long.... zz's for now.
I LOVE this name!!
