<span class="mw-page-title-main">Pachybrachini</span> Tribe of beetles

The Pachybrachini are a tribe within the leaf beetle subfamily Cryptocephalinae, described by Chapuis, 1874. They were formerly classified as the subtribe Pachybrachina within the tribe Cryptocephalini. In a molecular analysis published in 2021, Cryptocephalini including Pachybrachina was recovered as paraphyletic, so the authors separated Pachybrachina from Cryptocephalini as a separate tribe.
