Nerula is a genus of dicot skippers in the butterfly family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae). [1]
There are two species recognised in the genus Nerula: [2]
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.
Astraptes, commonly known as the flasher butterflies, is a genus of skipper butterflies in the subfamily Eudaminae. They are found in the Nearctic and Neotropical ecozones.
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.
Epargyreus is the genus of flasher butterflies, in the subfamily Eudaminae of skipper butterflies. The species are found in the Nearctic and Neotropical realms.
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.
Cephise is a Neotropical genus of skipper butterflies of the subfamily Eudaminae, within which it is placed in subtribe Cephisina.
Chioides is a mainly Neotropical genus of skipper butterflies in the family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae)
Codatractus is a Neotropical and Nearctic genus in the family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae).
Dyscophellus is a genus of largely Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae. The genus has been the subject of recent revisions based on genome analysis. It is currently placed in tribe Phocidini within the subfamily Eudaminae.
Ectomis is a genus of Neotropical and Nearctic butterflies in the family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae).
Hyalothyrus is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Entheini.
Oechydrus is a genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae).
Oileides is a genus of Neotropical spread-winged skippers in the family Hesperiidae.
Phanus is a genus of butterflies in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Entheini.
Phocides is a genus of butterflies in the skipper family, Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Phocidini, of which it is the namesake genus.
Porphyrogenes is a Neotropical genus of spread-winged skippers in the family Hesperiidae, in which they are placed to tribe Phocidini.
Tarsoctenus is a genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Entheini.
Burnsius oileus, the tropical checkered skipper, is a species of skipper. It is found in the United States, south through the West Indies, Mexico and Central America to Costa Rica. It was transferred to genus Burnsius in 2019, and was previously known as Pyrgus oileus.
Euriphellus is a genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in the tribe Phocidini. The genus was separated from Dyscophellus by George Traut Austin in 2008, and originally contained a single species, Euriphellus euribates. Since then, several other species have been transferred to the genus.
Nicephellus is a monotypic genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Phocidini.
