Geoplanini is a tribe of land planarians in the subfamily Geoplaninae. ^[1]

Description

The tribe Geoplanini includes all genera of Geoplaninae that occur east of the Andes plus the Chilean genus Transandiplana . However, there are no currently known synapomorphies uniting these genera, and this group is supported solely on the basis of molecular analyses. ^[1]

Genera

The tribe Geoplanini contains 25 genera:
