This Medarda’s Virbia or Stoll’s Tiger Moth – Virbia medarda (my gallery link with 4 more photos). It just came up on my terrace and died under my breakfast table one night last week. So I photographed him with both cell phone and camera and began the search for an identification. Not a lot of information about this little guy online or in books. The most photos online are in iNaturalist Costa Rica (35). Here’s just two of my photos, a top view and an underneath view.


¡Pura Vida!
