The Galerucinae are a subfamily of the leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae). It includes the flea beetles in tribe Alticini.

The division into 5 tribes is more a matter of traditional than based on modern research. Some genera, for example "Yingaresca", are better considered "incertae sedis" due to a general lack of knowledge. And while a good case can be made for some tribes – namely the Alticini and Galerucini – being all but monophyletic even in their traditional delimitation, others – like Luperini or Sermylini – appear to be just paraphyletic assemblages of primitive and more basal genera.
