Official source account — 2017 annual report, printed page 7: The El Chocón 01 account concerns an apparent object in video recorded in Neuquén Province on 1 January 2017. CEFAE examined successive frames and enlarged the shape. It identified body and wing features compatible with a flying insect crossing downward while turning left. The report explains that the wings were faint because of transparency and rapid beating, but does not identify an exact species.
