Taxonomic history
The subtribe was previously classified as the tribe Phaegopterini of the family Arctiidae.
In 2002, Jacobson & Weller proposed a clade ''Euchaetes'' within Arctiini.
[Jacobson NL & Weller SJ (2002) A cladistic study of the Arctiidae (Lepidoptera) by using characters of immatures and adults. ''Thomas Say publications in entomology'': 1-98, Entomologica Society of America: Lanham, Maryland.] In 2010, V. V. Dubatolov proposed that this clade should be classified as subtribe Euchaetina, containing eight arctiini genera, including ''

''Neue Entomologische Nachrichten'' 65:1-106] However, the name Euchaetina does not appear in the comprehensive 2010 checklist assembled by J. Donald Lafontaine and B. Christian Schmidt, nor its later updated versions, which place those genera under Phaegopterina.
