Arvicanthini is a tribe of muroid rodents in the subfamily Murinae. Almost all recent species in this tribe are or were found in Africa aside from one species, the Indian bush rat (Golunda ellioti), which is found in South Asia and Iran. However, some fossil Golunda species from India and the genus Parapelomys (known to have inhabited Arabia and Pakistan) are thought to have also occurred outside Africa, and one species in the fossil genus Saidomys may have also occurred in Afghanistan.

The genus Canariomys inhabited the Canary Islands until being driven to extinction by early human settlers.
