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,〔Forster (1964), Miller (1968)〕 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.〔D'Abrera (1988)〕
==Taxonomy and evolution==
A recent study proposes a hypothesis for the evolutionary relationships of Euptychiina, including estimates of time for the origin and diversification of major lineages, and also including a theory of biogeography for the group.
A recent study has shed some light on the taxonomy of the ''Taygetis'' clade and synonymized some genera and proposed new species combinations.〔. 2012.
