Nyctiphrynus is a genus of birds in the nightjar family Caprimulgidae that are found in Middle and South America.
==Taxonomy== The genus Nyctiphrynus was introduced in 1847 by the French naturalist Charles Lucien Bonaparte. He listed three species in the genus but did not specify the type species. In 1914 Harry C. Oberholser designated Caprimulgus ocellatus Tschudi, 1844, the ocellated poorwill, as the type. The genus name Nyctiphrynus is derived from the Ancient Greek νυκτι-/nukti- meaning "night-" or "nocturnal" and φρυνη/phrunē meaning "toad".
