Euptychiina

Euptychiina is one of the largest subtribes of the butterfly subfamily Satyrinae (family Nymphalidae). The only two comprehensive studies that include Euptychiina are the works of L. D. Miller and W. Forster, though the latter is now largely considered obsolete.

Although the classification of brush-footed butterflies (Nymphalidae) is currently under heavy revision, the Euptychiina is still little-studied by taxonomists. In fact, the group is so difficult to classify that D'Abrera placed almost all Euptychiina in a so-called wastebasket genus that he called " Euptychia" in his popular guide to Neotropical butterflies.
