We saw this in Soberania National Park in Panama. I believe I’ve got it down to it being a Clearwing Moth (though I certainly can’t be sure). It was seen mid-August. Looking forward to any identification help you can offer.

Hi April,
This looks very similar to the Scarlet Bodied Wasp Moth, Cosmosoma myrodora. It might be a closely related species or it might be the same species, but with a slight variation in the body coloration due to a variation within a local population. According to BugGuide, the Scarlet Bodied Wasp Moth is found in the Southern States.
