Revised classification of the family Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea) based on combined molecular and morphological data

“…Although characters of the male genitalia indicate that Mnaseas and Propapias belong in Anthoptini, we place all remaining unsampled Apaustus group genera in Moncini (Appendix 1). This includes almost all genera explicitly placed in the Apaustus group by Evans ( Eutocus , Eprius , Ludens , Methionopsis , Panca , Gallio , Methion , Thargella , Venas , Pamba , Repens , Phanes , Mnestheus , Artines , Flaccilla , Nastra , Sucova , Mnasinous , Mnasitheus , Moeris , Molla , Cobalopsis , Arita , Lerema , Adlerodea , Psoralis , Tigasis , Parcarystus , Thoon , Justinia , Onophas , Lamponia and Naevolus ), as well as genera whose placement there has been implied by subsequent authors ( Peba , Radiatus , Inglorius , Igapophilus , Saniba , Crinifemur ; see Mielke, 1968, 1980, 1992; Austin, 1997b; Mielke & Casagrande, 2003; Steinhauser, 2008). The only genus other than Mnaseas placed in Evans’ Apaustus group that we do not include in Moncini is Turesis (see Calpodini), although Naevolus might belong with Hesperiini.…”
