Alburninae is a small subfamily of the carp and minnow family of ray-finned fish, the Cyprinidae. The genera in this subfamily were previously considered to be part of the Leuciscinae, however, if the three Alburninae genera are included in that subfamily it is paraphyletic. The Alburninae is still a contentious group and some authorities consider it to consist of two distinct clades, making it biphyletic.
