Tagiadini
The Tagiadini are a tribe (biology), tribe of skipper butterfly, butterflies in the family Skipper (butterfly), Hesperiidae. Many of its genera were of uncertain relationships for long, and delimitation of the Tagiadini versus the Celaenorrhinini was quite disputed at times. The species of this tribe are found in mostly tropical regions of Africa, Asia and Australia.Brower (2007) Genera Altogether, the tribe contains 27 genera. Some of these seem to form a close-knit group around the tribe's type genus ''Tagiades''. These genera are often collectively called "Tagiades group" and may form a clade: "Tagiades group" * ''Abantis'' – paradise skippers * ''Abaratha'' * ''Ctenoptilum'' * ''Leucochitonea'' * ''Netrobalane'' – buff-tipped skipper * ''Semperium'' * ''Tagiades'' – water flats, snow flats Other genera * ''Abraximorpha'' * ''Albiphasma'' * ''Calleagris'' – scarce flats * ''Capila'' (formerly often placed in Celaenorrhinini) * ''Coladenia'' * ''Daimio ...

Leucochitonea
''Abantis'' is an Afrotropical genus of skipper (butterfly), skipper butterflies. They are also known as the paradise skippers. Their imagos are generally attractive with bold or colourful wing and/or body markings. They occur in either forest or savanna, and several species are very localized or thinly distributed. The territorial males are encountered more often than the females. Males engage territorial intruders, and are prone to very rapid and high flight, while females display more relaxed flight habits, closer to the ground. Plants of several families serve as food plants, and only one egg is oviposited per plant. The larva is pale and spotted to varying degrees, and pupates inside a leaf shelter drawn together by silk threads.

Celaenorrhinini
The Celaenorrhinini are a tribe of spread-winged skippers in the skipper butterfly subfamily Tagiadinae. These skippers are mainly found in tropical Africa. A few are found in Asia, and some species presently placed in the (paraphyletic) type genus '' Celaenorrhinus'' are found in the Neotropics. Genera The following genera – listed in the presumed phylogenetic sequence – are placed in the Celaenorrhinini:Brower (2009) * '' Alenia'' * '' Aurivittia'' * '' Apallaga'' * '' Celaenorrhinus'' – sprites, " flats" (paraphyletic) * '' Kobelana'' * '' Eretis'' – "elves" * '' Sarangesa'' – "elfins" (formerly often in Tagiadini) * '' Scopulifera'' GBIF: genus ''Scopulifera'' Libert, 2014

Tagiades
''Tagiades'', commonly known as snow flats, is a genus of spread-winged skipper butterflies. It is the type genus of the tribe Tagiadini of the subfamily Pyrginae in the family Hesperiidae. It contains seventeen species; three of which are found in tropical Africa, while fourteen are found from India, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, northeast Australia, to the Pacific Islands. They are primarily diurnal butterflies, and can usually be found in secondary forests at up to above sea level. They can sometimes be encountered in partially cleared or cultivated areas. They are fast flyers, flying at an average height of . They usually rest on the undersides of leaves. When disturbed they will fly away but will usually return to the preferred area, often to the same leaf. Species * '' Tagiades atticus'' (Fabricius, 1793) * '' Tagiades calligana'' Butler, 879/small> - Thailand, Malaysia, Sumatra, Singapore, Borneo, Java, Nias, Belitung, and Bangka Island * '' Tagiades ceylonica'' Evans, 1 ...
