Eudaminae
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. (2009): Tree of Life Web Project &ndashEudaminae Version of 2009-JUN-11. Retrieved 2009-DEC-24. Taxonomy The Eudaminae have been recent subject to significant taxonomic revisions based on genome analysis, including by Brower & Warren 2009, and Li et al. 2019. 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 and Oileidini.

Lobocla
''Lobocla'' is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae subfamily Eudaminae, within which they are placed in subtribe Loboclina. Unlike the rest of the Eudaminae, which have a New World distribution, the genus is endemic to Asia. Species Li et al. 2019 gives the following species and subspecies for this genus: *'' Lobocla aborica'' (Tytler, 1915) – India **''Lobocla aborica aborica'' (Tytler, 1915) **''Lobocla aborica zesta'' Evans, 1949 **''Lobocla aborica tonka'' Evans, 1949 *'' Lobocla bifasciatus'' (Bremer & Grey, 1853) – Indochina, China, Korea, Ussuri. *'' Lobocla contractus'' (Leech, 1894) – China *'' Lobocla disparalis'' Murayama, 1995 *'' Lobocla germanus'' (Oberthür, 1886) – China *'' Lobocla liliana'' (Atkinson, 1871) – type species **''Lobocla liliana ignatius'' (Plötz, 1882) **''Lobocla liliana liliana'' (Atkinson, 1871) *'' Lobocla nepos'' (Oberthür, 1886) – western China **''Lobocla nepos nepos'' (Oberthür, 1886) **''Lobocla nepos phyllis'' (H ...

Urbanus (genus)
''Urbanus'' is a genus of skipper butterflies erected by Jacob Hübner in 1807, placed to subtribe Eudamina. Species of the genus are found from the southern United States to South America. Taxonomy The genus has been subject to several revisions, one of which led to the type genus of subfamily Eudaminae, genus ''Eudamus'', becoming a junior synonym of ''Urbanus''. As a result of genome analysis of the Eudaminae, several species formerly considered part of ''Urbanus'' have been transferred to other genera, including to '' Cecropterus'' and '' Spicauda''. Species Except where separately referenced, this species list follows the classification of Li et al. 2019, with distribution data sourced from Markku Savela's ''Lepidoptera and Some Other Life Forms''.

Nicephellus
''Nicephellus'' is a monotypic genus of Neotropical butterflies in the family Hesperiidae, in which it is placed in tribe Phocidini. The sole species of the genus is ''Nicephellus nicephorus'', also called the two-spotted scarlet-eye, and was originally described in 1876 by William Chapman Hewitson as ''Eudamus nicephorus''. It is found from southern Mexico to Peru and western Brazil. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is 28–30 mm. The wings are dark brown with red-brown overscaling basad on both wings, with faint pale discal macules on the posterior hindwings (at times extending to the forewings).

Skipper Butterflies
Skippers are a family of the Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) named the Hesperiidae. Being diurnal, they are generally called butterflies. They were previously placed in a separate superfamily, Hesperioidea; however, the most recent taxonomy places the family in the superfamily Papilionoidea, the butterflies. They are named for their quick, darting flight habits. Most have their antenna tips modified into narrow, hook-like projections. Moreover, skippers mostly have an absence of wing-coupling structure available in most moths. More than 3500 species of skippers are recognized, and they occur worldwide, but with the greatest diversity in the Neotropical regions of Central and South America.Ackery et al. (1999) Description and systematics Traditionally, the Hesperiidae were placed in a monotypic superfamily Hesperioidea, because they are morphologically distinct from other Rhopalocera (butterflies), which mostly belong to the typical butterfly superfamily Papilionoidea.

Pyrgini
The Pyrgini are a tribe in the skipper butterfly subfamily Pyrginae. Formerly, when only four tribes of Pyrginae were recognized, the Pyrgini contained the largest number of genera among these. But this overly wide delimitation has since turned out to be paraphyletic.Brower & Warren (2007) One of the traditional Pyrginae tribes, the Eudamini, had to be raised to subfamily rank as Eudaminae. Some genera now in the Eudaminae were placed in the Pyrgini in earlier times. In addition, a number of additional tribes – Achlyodidini, Carcharodini and Erynnini – are now usually recognized again. These are close relatives of the Pyrgini '' sensu stricto'', and may just as well be included in them as they used to be: together they do still form a monophyletic group. Most authors prefer to keep them separate however, as each is an apomorphic and biogeographically distinct lineage of the Pyrgini ''sensu lato''. Of these newly recognized tribes, the Achlyodidini are closest to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Spicauda procne'', the brown longtail, is a species of butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. It is found from Argentina, north through Central America and Mexico to southern Texas. Rare strays can be found up to southern New Mexico, southern Arizona and southern California. The wingspan is 37–48 mm. There are three generations per year in southern Texas.
