Eudaminae
Dicot Skippers
Eudaminae is a subfamily of skipper butterflies (family Hesperiidae) comprising approximately 350 species. The group is predominantly Neotropical in distribution, with some species extending into temperate North America and one genus, Lobocla, occurring in East Asia. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies have elevated this group from tribal status within Pyrginae to subfamily rank, dividing it into four tribes: Entheini, Phocidini, Eudamini, and Oileidini. Members are commonly known as "flashers" due to their rapid flight patterns.
