Tanybria is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae.[2] It is distributed in Africa.

The genus was originally named Eubrachis by Louis Jules Léon Burgeon [nl], who described it in 1940. However, this name was unavailable, as it was preoccupied by two earlier Eumolpinae genera; the name Eubrachis was first used by Dejean in his catalogue in 1836 (which is now a synonym of Pseudocolaspis), and later by Joseph Sugar Baly in 1878 (now a synonym of Macrocoma). Because of this, Burgeon's Eubrachis was renamed to Tanybria by Brian J. Selman in 1963.[1]
