Satyrodes eurydice, the eyed brown or marsh eyed brown, is a species of Satyrinae butterfly that is native to North America.[1][2]
There are two subspecies—the nominate species, the eyed brown (S. e. eurydice), and the smokey eyed brown (S. e. fumosa) (Leussler, 1916).
Wingspan: 38 to 48 mm.[3]
They have one brood with a flight period from late June through August.[4]
Larvae feed on sedges (Carex) in particular C. lacustris, C. atherodes, C. rostrata, and C. stricta.[5]
