    Panacea procilla from Central and South America.

    Would be MUCH, MUCH easier if you had said where it was photographed. Even if is a butterfly hall (I guess it is since you posted in on a zoo forum) because many have homepages with species lists or get their butterflies from 1-2 suppliers and you can limit the possibilities from that.
