Genera
Extant
Blaimer et al. performed a molecular analysis of the tribe in 2018 and created ten genus groups for the tribe, encompassing all but five extant genera. Of the five unplaced genera, Rostromyrmex is recovered to be sister to the rest of the tribe, however the genus group placements of the other four genera are uncertain as of 2026. These genus groups are also referred to as alliances.[2] The Carebara and Mayriella genus groups were recovered monophyletic in the maximum likelihood analysis, but rendered paraphyletic in the species-tree analysis; the other eight species groups concurred with each other.[3]
