Tropidiina is a subtribe of hoverflies within the tribe Milesiini. Tropidiina includes 11 genera.
Tropidiina, although traditionally classified within the tribe Milesiini, has also been found to be a sister group to the tribe Eristalini in recent phylogenetic studies, indicating that Milesiini, as currently defined, does not include all descendants of the last common ancestor, making Milesiini polyphyletic.
