Treatment

Prada Evans, 1949 belongs to Trapezitinae Waterhouse and Lyell, 1914

Prada (type species Plastingia rothschildi Evans, 1928 ) is transferred to Trapezitinae because it is monophyletic with this subfamily, receiving the strongest statistical support in all trees ( Fig. 8 View Figure 8 ), and is not monophyletic with Hesperiinae where it was formerly placed (Warren et al. 2009).
