Discussion of Phylogenetic Relationships
Lamas (2004) considered Carminda Ebert & Dias 1997 to be a synonym of Moneuptychia, but Freitas (2007) points out that the phylogenetic analysis of Peña et al. (2006) shows members of "Moneuptychia" to be polyphyletic under that circumscription, with M. itapeva (misidentified as Yphthimoides sp.) more closely-related to Euptychioides and "M. paeon" more closely-related to Paryphthymoides.
