Tibicininae is a subfamily of cicadas in the family Cicadidae. There are 5 tribes and at least 140 described species in Tibicininae.[1] They are found in the Neotropics, the Nearctic, and the Palearctic.[2]

Tibicininae underwent a major revision in 2005, and it was proposed to rename the subfamily Tettigadinae in order to avoid confusion due to the restructuring of the subfamily.[3] This proposal was not universally accepted, and no official appeal was made for the name change. Even so, Tettigadinae is sometimes used as a name for this subfamily.[4]
