Moved
Moved from ID Request.

Moved provisionally, pending Dr. Hamilton's review.

Hmm...
I'm wondering if this one might also be Coelidia.



It's much redder than any of those in the Guide, but the shape and general pattern are very similar. I'll be interested to see what Dr. Hamilton has to say.

 
probable
This seems probable to me. I see many color variations. Given the lack of any further confirmation or correction, Coelidia olitoria it shall be to me. Thanks.

 
Leaf
If it's any help to anybody, this one was standing on the leaf of a Datura stramonium.
