I'm stuck on several moths from my recent trip to Colombia.
If someone knows one or more of these I realize I'm very lucky.
But I have nothing to lose, so I'll give it a try, and post some of the most obvious ones...
Image 1 is from Libano
Images 2, 3 and 4 is from Manizales
Image 5 is from Las Tangaras Lodge, El Carmen (chocó)
All photographed during August/September

The first moth might also be a Lichnoptera (Noctuidae, Pantheinae).

No. 5 is most probably a Polygrammodes sp. (Crambidae, Pyraustinae)

For number 2, I agree that it looks like Geometridae. For number 3, I'd say Notodontidae rather than Noctuidae.
Your invert guide in Suriname.
