De Danainae of monarchvlinders vormen een onderfamilie van vlinders in de familie Nymphalidae. Het taxon heeft bij sommige auteurs de status van zelfstandige familie, onder de naam Danaidae. Wereldwijd zijn er inmiddels zo'n 300 soorten in deze onderfamilie beschreven. De indeling in tribus, subtribus en geslachten in dit artikel volgt die van de Nymphalidae Systematics Group.[1] De synonymie volgt die van Ackery & Vane-Wright (1984)[2] en Lamas (2004).[3]
