Bathybatini is a tribe of cichlids endemic to Lake Tanganyika in Africa.

They are mostly found in relatively deep waters and mainly feed on fish (Bathybates and Hemibates) or plankton (Trematocara).

[1] This tribe is sometimes restricted to Bathybates, in which case Hemibates is in Hemibatini and Trematocara in Trematocarini.
