I just checked underside of my Letis scops and your specimen is Letis scops. Lately this genus is called Feigeria

Lately have been getting these from Belize but they also sent another two ascalapha odorata. In a few months I’ve received as many as I’ve caught in 30 years. My trip to Belize is coming up soon and I hope there will be much to show. Nephew will work on taking the footage and making a ‘travelogue’ for YouTube. More to come......

I only collected one specimen of Ascalapha odorata during my two weeks stay in French Guiana and it came to bait trap not light.
If you are going there in begin of rain season you should find a tons of moths but not so many butterflies. Begin of dry season is vice versa.
In anyway you will have a lot to show and we’ll be pleased to admire your catch.
