Case description

Official source account — 2020 annual report, printed page 86: A photographer at Los Cocos noticed an unfamiliar object only after reviewing the image. Enlargement showed an elongated body with two central lateral projections compatible with transparent wing roots. CIAE considered it a flying insect accidentally captured during exposure. The agency assigned Type B because the apparent anatomy supported this explanation, while the fleeting passage could not be recreated or independently witnessed. The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
