Argynnini is a tribe of butterflies in the subfamily Heliconiinae, containing some of the fritillaries. This group has also been classified as subtribe Argynnina of the Heliconiini, or even as a distinct subfamily Argynninae in the Nymphalidae. This group has roughly 30 species in North America with other species distributed world-wide.

Genera and selected species

While many treatments consider several proposed genera to be junior synonyms of "Argynnis" – occasionally even the fairly distinct "Speyeria" –, other authors treat "Argynnis" in a much more circumscribed manner and split off "Argyreus", "Damora", "Speyeria" and others. To a lesser extent, similar uncertainty affects "Boloria" and "Issoria".
