Simple Summary  The rove beetle subfamily Tachyporinae has been suggested to be polyphyletic for the last half century but there are no previous studies conducting phylogenetic analysis on this group specifically. Here, the most comprehensive tachyporine phylogeny is shown, which again rejects the monophyly of Tachyporinae and its largest tribe Tachyporini. A revised classification of Tachyporinae is proposed here based on observation of morphological characters and their phylogenetic analyses. This backbone phylogeny will be a framework for further evolutionary and ecological studies.    Abstract  Tachyporinae are one of the most phylogenetically problematic subfamilies in the mega-diverse rove beetle family Staphylinidae. Despite its high diversity and abundance in forest micro-environments, with over 1600 species worldwide, several previous studies had refuted the monophyly of this subfamily and its largest tribe, Tachyporini. Based on the results of morphology-based phylogenetic analyses and direct examination of specimens encompassing two extinct and all forty extant genera, a new suprageneric classification of Tachyporinae is proposed here, with the removal of the tribe Mycetoporini into a newly recognized subfamily Mycetoporinae stat. nov. Four tribes with two subtribes are arranged within Tachyporinae sensu nov.: Tachyporini sensu nov. (Tachyporina stat. nov., sensu nov. and Euconosomatina stat. rev., sensu nov.), Vatesini sensu nov., Deropini, and Tachinusini stat. rev., sensu nov. (= Megarthropsini syn. nov.).  Urolitus  syn. nov. is placed as a junior synonym of  Sepedophilus , and  Palporus  stat. nov. is raised to a distinct genus from a subgenus of  Tachyporus  sensu. nov., and † Mesotachyporus  syn. nov. is treated as synonym of the latter. Mycetoporine  Bobitobus  stat. rev. is resurrected from synonymy with  Lordithon  sensu nov., and considered as a valid genus. My revised classification provides a novel framework for taxonomic inventories and ecological studies of these groups.
