Eueides isabella

I am calling this the isabella based on the fact that its body is short, tucked within the front-to-back dimension of its wings. The wing pattern is very similar to the lycorea cleobaea atergatis, and it has distinct white dots around the wing periphery like the lycorea, but the lycorea has a long skinny body that extends well behind its wings.
