Polyura (< πολύ- 'multum' + οὐρά 'cauda') est genus papilionum subfamiliae Charaxinarum familiae Nymphalidarum. Species in oecozonis Indomalayana et Australasiana endemicae sunt. Sicut Charaxes magna et conspicua, ad tribum Charaxinorum pertinet. Investigationes geneticae nuper probaverunt nonnullas Charaxis species propriores Polyurae esse quam aliis speciebus Charaxis, ac Polyura igitur in Charaxes poni posse.
Genus distribuitur ab India per Asiam Orientalem, Sinas, Indonesiam, Novam Guineam, et Insulas Salomonis ad Philippinas, Novam Caledoniam, Vanuatu, Vitios, et Australiam (Smiles 1982:126).
