Very nice! According to Klymko & Marshall, 2011 (Zootaxa 3079: 1-110; key, pp. 25-26, wing, Fig. 210, habitus, Fig. 9, the picture taken in Yasuni National Park, too), that's C. trypetipenne Hendel, 1913

While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.
