The genus Callophrys consists of butterflies in the family Lycaenidae. It is apparently not monophyletic, but which of the taxa currently considered junior synonyms of Callophrys are valid genera remains to be determined.
The Asian and European members of this genus and some North American species are commonly known as green hairstreaks, and the North American species in the subgenus Incisalia are called elfins.
