Arvicolini is a tribe of voles in the subfamily Arvicolinae.

A 2021 study found that Arvicola is distinct from the other extant genera in the tribe, instead being sister to the tribe Lagurini.[2] The current species listing of the American Society of Mammalogists lists only Arvicola in this tribe, with all other extant members being removed to Microtini.[3]
