Phylinae is a subfamily of the plant bug family Miridae. Species of this family are found worldwide.
In research published in 2013, the subfamily Phylinae was reorganized. The tribe Auricillocorini is now considered a synonym of Hallodapini, and the tribe Pronotocrepini a synonym of the subtribe Cremnorrhina. New tribes were created under the new or resurrected names Decomiini, Exocarpocorini, Cremnorrhini, Nasocorini, and Semiini. The revised subfamily consists of nine tribes containing around 400 genera and over 2000 species.[1][2]
