Carcharodus
Carcharodus is a Palearctic genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae.
In genomic research published in 2020, it was determined that six of the eight species in Carcharodus were more closely related to those in the genus Muschampia, and were transferred to that genus. This left only two species in Carcharodus.
