Argynnini is a tribe of butterflies in the subfamily Heliconiinae, containing some of the fritillaries. This group has roughly 100 species worldwide and roughly 30 in North America.
Systematics

This group has also been classified as subtribe Argynnina of the Heliconiini, or even as a distinct subfamily Argynninae in the Nymphalidae.
Genera

Following studies of molecular phylogeny, genus delimitation has been unstable in recent years. Several earlier genera are now junior synonyms of Argynnis (Argyreus, Argyronome, Damora and others, but Speyeria and Fabriciana have been split off again). Similarly, Boloria now includes Clossiana and Proclossiana, and Issoria includes Kuekenthaliella.[1][2]

Euptoieta Doubleday, 1848
Pardopsis Trimen, 1887 (uncertain placement, possibly in Acraeini)
Yramea Reuss, 1920
Boloria Moore, 1900 (now including Clossiana and Proclossiana)
Issoria Hübner, 1819
Brenthis Hübner, 1819
Argynnis Fabricius, 1807
Speyeria Scudder, 1872 (previously included in Argynnis)
Fabriciana Reuss, 1920 (previously included in Argynnis)
