Identify this creature and win SBI: correct answer

phortun (74)in #photography • 5 years ago

Hi there my Steemit friends and followers!

I just realized that my last identify-this-creature quiz actually remained unsolved (although I received a number of interesting and very close tips) so let me tell you who this little fella really is.

This butterfly is known as the split-banded owlet (Opsiphanes Cassina). It has a wingspan of about 7 cm (2.8 in) and it is quite common in Central America and the northern part of South America (from Mexico to Amazonia).

Since nobody managed to identify this creature correctly, the prize (2 SBI) will be added to the prize pool of the next contest ;)

Thank you for visiting my blog. If you like posts about #nature, #animals, #traveling and discovering secrets and beauties of the #world, feel free to follow me as these are the topics I mostly write about. Have a wonderful day and keep on Steeming!
