Wikispecies has information related to Polyommatinae.
Polyommatinae, the blues, are a subfamily of gossamer-winged butterflies (Lycaenidae). It was long used to assign taxa of unclear relationships, and its contents are in need of revision. Several genera might not even belong here.
Genera incertae sedis
These genera are of unclear affinities. A question mark indicates doubt as to whether a genus belongs in the Polyommatinae.

Doubtful Polyommatinae
The genera in this list are considered Polyommatinae by some authors, but at least some belong elsewhere:
- Lepidochrysops – Polyommatini? Lycaeninae?
- Paralycaeides – Polyommatini? Lycaeninae?
- Uranothauma – Lycaeninae?
