Tribe Argyriini
Remarks
Léger et al. (2019) found this tribe to be polyphyletic as previously treated by Landry (1995) and Munroe (1995) and circumscribed the Argyriini to include only Argyria and Urola, though additional unplaced genera may belong to this tribe. Vaxi, which includes North American species placed in Argyria by some authorities, and Pseudocatharylla are placed in Calamotrophini.
