'''Stiriini''' is a tribe of owlet moths in the family Noctuidae. There are about 16 genera and more than 90 described species in Stiriini.<ref name=itis/><ref name=bugguide/><ref name=Keegan2019/><ref name=Keegan2021/>
Stiriini was formerly a tribe of the subfamily Amphipyrinae. As a result of phylogenetic research published in 2019, the tribe Stiriini was determined to be polyphyletic, with much of its diversity spread among three subfamilies. One of the three subfamilies was the existing family Metoponiinae. The other two subfamilies, Grotellinae and Stiriinae, were previously subtribes of Stiriini and were elevated to subfamily rank. Stiriini is now a tribe of the new subfamily Stiriinae, and contains the majority of the former subtribe Stiriina, along with a few other genera.<ref name=Keegan2019/><ref name=Keegan2021/>
The moths of Stiriini are found in North America and, to a lesser extent, Central America and the Caribbean.<ref name=itis/><ref name=bugguide/>
