Scientific classification
Domain:	Eukaryota
Kingdom:	Animalia
Phylum:	Chordata
Class:	Aves
Order:	Accipitriformes
Family:	Accipitridae
Subfamily:	Lophospizinae Catanach et al 2024
Genus:	Lophospiza Kaup, 1844

Lophospiza is a genus of Asian birds of prey in the family Accipitridae. It is the only genus in the subfamily Lophospizinae. The two species placed in this genus were formerly placed in the genus Accipiter.

Taxonomy

The genus Lophospiza was introduced in 1844 by the German naturalist Johann Jakob Kaup with Falco trivirgatus Temminck as the type species. The name combines the Ancient Greek λοφος (lophos) meaning "crest" and σπιζιας (spizias) meaning "hawk".

The genus contains two species:

• Crested goshawk, Lophospiza trivirgata
• Sulawesi goshawk, Lophospiza griseiceps

Both species were formerly classified in the genus Accipiter but molecular phylogenetic studies found that Accipiter was polyphyletic. In the rearrangement to create monophyletic genera these two species were moved to the resurrected genus Lophospiza.
