snowgyreDescription
Terrible photo, but if you view the full sized image, markings should be diagnostic. This is an adult female.

Southern Cloudywing (Thorybes bathyllus)Observer
snowgyreDescription
Difficult ID. This butterfly has a white patch where the antennas bend, which is indicative of southern cloudywing, but a dark face, which is indicative of northern cloudywing. Could be a confused cloudywing, but confused cloudywings should have pale faces and no white patch at the bend of the antenna. ID help requested.
