| Description: | The status of some Neotropical Pyrginae (Lepidoptera: Hesperidae) is examined in relation to the taxonomy of Evans (1953). The identity of Heliopyrgus Herrera, 1957 as a genus distincs from Heliopetes Billberg, (1820) and pyrgus Hubner, (1819), is confirmed. In addition, some taxa for which there has been a status change since Evans (1953) without documentation are discussed and evaluated. Revised statuses are proposed for pyrgus oreynoides (Giacomelli, 1928); Pyrgus brenda Evans 1942, and Heliopetes nivella (Mabile, 1883)}; new status is proposed for Heliopetes marginata Hayward, 1940; and a new combination is proposed for Heliopyrgus sublinea (Schaus, 1902). |
