Phasmatinae
The Phasmatinae are a subfamily of stick insects in the family Phasmatidae. They contain at least three tribes; Bradley and Galil corrected the spelling to "Phasmatinae" and provides a key to tribes.[1]

Inclusion of Other Tribes
Some treatments include up to seven tribes in this subfamily. The Clitumnini and Pharnaciini are here separated in a distinct subfamily Clitumninae, and while the Achriopterini and Stephanacridini have also been placed in the Phasmatinae, other authors treat them as tribes incertae sedis among the Phasmatidae as is done here.

gollark: I was thinking concating iterators but that's chain.
