Tagiadini are a group of skipper butterflies in the family Hesperiidae. They live mainly in tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Australia. The tribe includes about 27 genera. For a long time, scientists debated how the genera were related and how Tagiadini fit with the nearby Celaenorrhinini. Several genera are closely linked to the main genus Tagiades, and together these are often called the "Tagiades group," which may form a single evolutionary branch (clade).
