The genus is Disphragis in Lepindex, which has obviously not been updated:
https://www.nhm.ac.uk/our-science/data/lepindex/detail/?taxonno=63213&&snoc=gelduba&search_type=starts&sort=snoc&indexed_from=1&page_no=1&page_size=30&path=search
Apparently this is the only updated database:
https://panamabiota.org/stri/taxa/taxonomy/taxonomydisplay.php?target=Notodontidae
So then the iNat taxonomy should be updated to the correct / current genus combination - Rifargia gelduba
the most recent taxonomic treatments - Schintlmeister (2916) and Becker (2014) - both indicate that gelduba is in the genus Rifargia - curious what the taxonomic reference is for the combination with Disphragis @claudioflamigni
