The genera of Cleridae are divided among several subfamilies, though some genera still defy easy classification.
Several taxonomic schemes exist, recognizing for example a group around Neorthopleura as distinct subfamily Neorthopleurinae, or splitting off the Thaneroclerinae as distinct family, or circumscribing the Korynetinae sensu stricto or sensu lato.
The following list of tribes and selected genera is thus preliminary.
Some notable species are also listed.
