I also received the following images from Kelly Price with no location given other than western Ecuador. top pne seems a pretty good match for the female
of Copaxa satellita (HT Bogota, Colombia) while the lower one seems a pretty good match for the female of Copaxa madrediosiana (HT Madre de Dios, Peru)
in the Entomo Satsphingia journal. Hence the lower one may be the female of C. kitchingi because of location. It is also dangerous to make assumptions
about what is meant by western Ecuador, without a specific location.
