Lasiurini is a tribe of bats in the family Vespertilionidae. It contains three genera of bats found in the Americas. All three genera were previously considered one genus, Lasiurus, but have since been split from one another. However, the validity of this split is still debated.{{Cite web|title=ITIS - Report: Lasiurini|url=https://www.itis.gov/servlet/SingleRpt/SingleRpt?search_topic=TSN&search_value=945860#null|access-date=2021-12-07|website=www.itis.gov}}{{Citation|last=Database|first=Mammal Diversity|title=Mammal Diversity Database|date=2021-11-06|doi=10.5281/zenodo.5651212 |url=https://zenodo.org/record/5651212|access-date=2021-12-07}}{{Cite journal|last1=NOVAES|first1=ROBERTO LEONAN M.|last2=GARBINO|first2=GUILHERME S.
