The Phaegopterina are the largest subtribe of tiger moths in the Arctiini tribe, which is a part of the Erebidae family. It contains the arctiine tussock moths (a name more commonly associated with the Lymantriinae).

Taxonomy

The subtribe was previously classified as the Phaegopterini tribe of the Arctiidae family.

Genera

The following genera are included in the subtribe. Numerous arctiine genera have not yet been assigned to a subtribe, so this genus list may be incomplete.
