Arundinarieae is a tribe of bamboo in the grass family (Poaceae), placed in its own supertribe Arundinarodae and containing a single subtribe, Arundinariinae, and 30 genera. These woody bamboos occur in areas with warm temperate climates in southeastern North America, Subsaharan Africa, South Asia and East Asia. The tribe forms a lineage independent of the tropical woody bamboos (Bambuseae) and the tropical herbaceous bamboos (Olyreae).
