Tropeognathinae is an extinct subfamily of anhanguerid pterosaurs. Tropeognathine fossils have been found in Cretaceous deposits of Australia, Brazil, and Morocco.^[2]

Tropeognathinae is defined as "the most inclusive clade containing Tropeognathus mesembrinus but not Coloborhynchus clavirostris or Anhanguera blittersdorffi." All tropeognathines have relatively short teeth, with the height of the crown under 3 times the diameter of the tooth, as well as premaxillary crests that reach the tip of the rostrum.^[2] Mythungini, a stem-based clade of Australian tropeognathines, is defined as "the group consisting of Mythunga camara and all species more closely related to Mythunga than to Tropeognathus mesembrinus, Amblydectes crassidens or Siroccopteryx moroccensis." A synapomorphy for mythungins is the possession of raised rims or collars around the tooth sockets.^[1]

The mythungin tropeognathine Thapunngaka is the largest flying reptile currently known from Australia.^[1]
