Karen is correct, but it is now called Caligo telamonius memnon. Most probably it is this one, since Memnon is quite common. However, it is taken in a butterfly house, so geographical range is not reliable. Memnon is from Mexico to Nicaragua and the other Pale Owl is Caligo telamonius menus from Costa Rica to Colombia.
