Trypetini
Trypetini is a tribe of true fruit flies within the subfamily Trypetinae (family Tephritidae). Comparative morphological studies of over 250 tephritid species established this group as monophyletic, comprising two subtribes: Trypetina and Chetostomatina. The classification was originally developed in a 1992 dissertation and subsequently adopted with modifications by major tephritid publications. The tribe has a global distribution.
