The tribe Amburaneae is one of the subdivisions of the plant family Fabaceae. It was recently circumscribed to include the following genera, which formerly were placed in tribes Sophoreae and Swartzieae:[1][2][3][4][5][6]

This clade does not currently have a node-based, phylogenetic definition. It also lacks a clear morphological synapomorphy, however, members of the Amburaneae, as well as species found in its sister group, Dipterygeae, are known to produce a variety of resins (balsams, coumarins, etc.).[3][5]
