Phaenicophilus is a genus of birds that was formerly placed in the family Thraupidae, but is now placed in the Hispaniolan tanager family Phaenicophilidae. Its members are known as palm-tanagers.

The genus Phaenicophilus was introduced by the English geologist and naturalist Hugh Edwin Strickland in 1851.[2] The type species was subsequently designated as the black-crowned palm-tanager.[3]

The genus contains the following species:[4]
