Unfortunately there ARE millions of species in Columbia, mostly yet undescribed, that's our problem...

Bayucca, I think you have the right species. My reference pic looks very similar, and there are many species in Colombia. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks Sachin. We don't have a lot of butterfly species in Minnesota, Colombia is amazing to me!
