-'''Felini''' is a [[Tribe (biology)|tribe]] in the [[Felidae]] family.
+'''Felini''' is a tribe in the [[Felinae]] subfamily.
-There are two major groups of felids, the sabre-toothed cats of subfamily [[Machairodontinae]] and the conical-toothed cats. The conical toothed cats are divided into the pantherine cats, which include the big cats of genus ''[[Panthera]]'' and the clouded leopards of genus ''[[Neofelis]]'', and the feline cats, which include all the rest of the cats, from the smaller ''[[Felis]]'' and ''[[Prionailurus]]'' cats to the larger [[puma]] and [[cheetah]].
-Some authorities use the subfamily [[Felinae]] ''[[Sensu#Common_qualifiers|sensu lato]]'' for all conical-toothed cats, in which case the tribe Felini is used for the feline cats, while the pantherine cats are assigned the tribe [[Pantherini]]. Other authorities use Felinae only for the feline cats (excluding the pantherine cats), in which case Felini is a synonym for Felinae ''[[sensu stricto]]''.
