Machairodontini is an extinct tribe of large saber-toothed cats of the subfamily Machairodontinae, that lived in Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, and South America^[1] during the Miocene through Pleistocene living from 11.6 mya–11 000 years ago.

Machairodontini was named by Gill (1872) as well as de Beaumont (1964). It was assigned to Machairodontinae by Berta and Galiano (1983).^[3]
