Hermeuptychia is a genus of satyrid butterflies found in the Neotropical realm. They are a widespread, cryptic genus, with Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I species delineation methods implying much greater species diversity than currently recognised.[1]

[edit]The genus contains the following species, listed alphabetically:[2]
- Hermeuptychia atalanta (Butler, 1867)
- Hermeuptychia cucullina (Weymer, 1911)
- Hermeuptychia fallax (C. & R. Felder, 1862)
- Hermeuptychia gisella (Hayward, 1957)
- Hermeuptychia harmonia (Butler, 1867)
- Hermeuptychia hermes (Fabricius, 1775)
- Hermeuptychia hermybius Grishin, 2014
- Hermeuptychia intricata Grishin, 2014
- Hermeuptychia maimoune (Butler, 1870)
- Hermeuptychia pimpla (C. & R. Felder, 1862)
