Tropical or Goatweed Leafwing? - Anaea andria

Tropical or Goatweed Leafwing? - Anaea andria
National Butterfly Center, Hidalgo County, Texas, USA
March 24, 2014
I know that a Goatweed Leafwing is more plainly marked and often doesn't have the HW spot, and rarer in the valley, but the edge of these wings are very smooth and without a bump below the tail... Perhaps the tail is too long for a Goatweed?
