'''Faboideae''' is a [[subfamily]] of the [[flowering plant]] family [[Fabaceae]] or Leguminosae. An acceptable alternative name for the subfamily is Papilionoideae.

This subfamily is widely distributed and members are adapted to a wide variety of environments. Faboideae may be [[tree]]s, [[shrub]]s or herbs. The [[flower]]s are classically pea shaped and [[Root nodules|root nodulation]] is very common.
