Dacelo (Leach, 1815) è un genere di uccelli della famiglia Alcedinidae, originario dell'Australia e della Nuova Guinea. Comprende quattro specie comunemente chiamate kookaburra. Il termine deriva dalla parola onomatopeica gaagabuura nella lingua degli indigeni Wiradjuri che imita il verso di questi uccelli. Il verso è infatti una delle principali caratteristiche distintive dei kookaburra: sono soliti emettere richiami stridenti simili ad una risata umana.
