Two subspecies are recognised:
Grass skippers or banded skippers are butterflies of the subfamily Hesperiinae, part of the skipper family, Hesperiidae. The subfamily was established by Pierre André Latreille in 1809.
Pyrgus is a genus in the skippers butterfly family, Hesperiidae, known as the grizzled skippers. The name "checkered" or "chequered skipper" may also be applied to some species, but also refers to species in the genera Burnsius and Carterocephalus. They occur in the Holarctic with an additional group of species extending to the Neotropic.
The Eudaminae are a subfamily of skipper butterflies. 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.
Autochton is a genus of skipper butterflies. They belong to the subfamily Eudaminae, which was long included with the spread-winged skippers (Pyrginae) as a tribe. They are found from Mexico to South America.
Telegonus is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in subtribe Eudamina. It has been the subject of recent revision, and now includes several species formerly in Astraptes, Autochton and Urbanus.
Lobotractus valeriana, the valeriana skipper, is a species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Telegonus alardus, the frosted flasher, is a species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea, Central America, North America, and South America.
Cecropterus casica, the desert cloudywing, is a species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Cogia calchas, the mimosa skipper, is a Nearctic species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae.
Polygonus savigny, or Manuel's skipper, is a species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in North America.
