The Apatophyseini are a tribe of longhorn beetles erected by Lacordaire in 1869. They are placed in the monotypic subfamily Apatophyseinae.

Apatophyseini is a tribe in the longhorn beetle family Cerambycidae. There are at least 90 genera and more than 300 described species in Apatophyseini, found in Europe, Asia, and Africa. Around 250 of these species are native to Madagascar.
