Pedinini is a tribe of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. There are 19 known genera in Pedinini.[1][2][3][4]
In research by Kamiński et al. published in 2021, the concept Pedinini has been revisited. Based on molecular evidence Helopinina, Leichenina and Pedinina were considered subtribes within a single tribe[1]. Identification key to Pedinina has been provided by Kamiński and Iwan in 2017[5], while the catalog of species representing Helopinina was published by Kamiński et al. 2021[6].
