Molytinae is a subfamily of weevils described by Carl Johan Schönherr in 1823.

Molytinae includes the following tribes:

Amalactini
Aminyopini
Amorphocerini
Anchonini
Cholini
Cleogonini
Conotrachelini
Cycloterini
Dinomorphini
Euderini
Galloisiini
Guioperini
Hylobiini
Ithyporini
Juanorhinini
Lepyrini
Lithinini
Lymantini
Mecysolobini
Metatygini
Molytini
Nettarhinini
Pacholenini
Paipalesomini
Petalochilini
Phoenicobatini
Phrynixini[1]
Pissodini
Sternechini
Styanacini
Thalasselephantini
Trachodini
Trigonocolini
Trypetidini[1]

In many older treatments, the Bagoinae, Cryptorhynchinae, Hyperinae, Lixinae and Mesoptiliinae are included in the Molytinae as "tribus groups", as well as the Itini which are otherwise considered a tribe of the Curculioninae.

These genera, among others, belong to the subfamily Molytinae:[2][3]
