'''Orchideae''' is a tribe of orchids in the subfamily Orchidoideae. Historically, it was divided into 2 subtribes, Orchidinae and Habenariinae. The subtribe Orchidinae alone contains about 1,800 species.<ref name=JinSchuChasLi17/> However, although some phylogenetic studies have established the monophyly of the subtribes, the generic boundaries are unclear, with many genera as traditionally circumscribed being paraphyletic or even polyphyletic.<ref name=JinJinSchuLi14/> Species of genera such as ''Habenaria'' and ''Platanthera'' have been placed into both subtribes.<ref name=JinLiXianLai12/> A 2017 molecular phylogenetic study found that both subtribes did form clades, but did not formally recognize Habenariinae, because of missing genera and uncertainty over generic boundaries.<ref name=JinSchuChasLi17/> The Asian species of Orchideae, in particular, have been subject to repeated changes of generic placement from 2012 onwards.<ref name=JinLiXianLai12/><ref name=JinJinSchuLi14/><ref name=TangYukaBateJian15/><ref name=JinXianJin15/><ref name=RaskJinXianSchu16/><ref name=JinSchuChasLi17/>

As of 2017, Orchideae is divided into 6 subtribes: Brownleeinae, Pachitinae, Huttonaeinae, Orchidinae, Coryciinae, and Disinae.<ref name = ":2" />

Consequently, the former subtribes of Diseae have been redistributed within the Orchideae (for instance, ''Satyrium'' is now classified in the Orchidinae). In his 2015 study Chase recommended further study of historically problematic genera in the former Diseae such as ''Huttonaea and Pachites.'' Further molecular analysis by Chen et al. in 2017 led to the following reorganization:<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal |last1=Chase |first1=Mark W. |last2=Cameron |first2=Kenneth M. |date=2015 |title=An updated classification of Orchidaceae |journal=Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society |volume=177 |issue=2 |pages=151–174 |doi=10.1111/boj.12234 |doi-access=free }}</ref><ref name=":2" /> [[File:Anacamptis pyramidalis 2 RF.jpg|thumb|190x190px|''Anacamptis pyramidalis'']] [[File:Flowers of India 828.jpg|thumb|190x190px|''Brachycorythis'', a member of the Orchidinae]]
