Hello everyone! Does someone could help me identify these butterflies (group, name, sex, rarity ...)? In the resort, I took the picture labels. Thank you very much!

Where did you collect this from?. It belongs to the genus Colax in the Notodontidae, very similar to C. apulus (Cramer, 1776).

The problem is that I have no other information except the éiquettes! I would say in South America to other butterflies of the lot that I had recovered and the name "Angra" (Brazil)

Yes, Colax apulus [Cramer, 1776] Nevertheless, the second could be : Colax phocus Schaus, 1892 Check on page : www.guianensis.fr/photos_notodontidae_1.htmOiticica seems to be a location in North East Brazil (Ceara). On the other hand, Angra dos Reis is a town West of Rio de Janeiro. Attachments:
