The Eudaminae are a subfamily of skipper butterflies (family Hesperiidae). Their original type genus Eudamus is today a junior synonym of Urbanus. They are largely found in the Neotropics, with some extending into temperate North America, and one genus, Lobocla, endemic to East Asia.[1] Some species in several genera are commonly known as flashers.

Taxonomy

[edit | edit source]

The Eudaminae have been recent subject to significant taxonomic revisions based on genome analysis, including by Brower & Warren 2009,[1] and Li et al. 2019.[2]

Historically, the subfamily has been included as tribe Eudamini in subfamily Pyrginae, based on perceived similarities with two of the tribes in that subfamily, the Celaenorrhinini and Pyrgini. As of Li et al. 2019, the Eudaminae are divided into four tribes: Entheini, Phocidini, Eudamini[a] and Oileidini.[b][2]
