Microtini is a tribe of voles in the subfamily Arvicolinae.[1]
Most members of this tribe were once placed in Arvicolini, but a 2021 study found that Arvicola is distinct from the other extant genera in Arvicolini, instead being sister to the tribe Lagurini.[2] The current species listing of the American Society of Mammalogists lists only Arvicola in Arvicolini, with all other extant members being removed to Microtini.[3]
