The Abraxini are a tribe of geometer moths in the subfamily Ennominae. Here, the Cassymini are considered a specialized offshoot of the Abraxini and merged therein; some authors consider them a distinct tribe however.^[2]

As numerous ennominae genera have not yet been assigned to a tribe,^[3] the genus list is preliminary. Most of the genera listed here would be placed in the Cassymini if these are considered separate.^[4]
