Pipra is a genus of birds in the manakin family Pipridae.
==Taxonomy and species list== The genus Pipra was introduced by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1764. The name was used by Ancient Greek authors such as Aristotle for a small bird but it is unclear which species it referred to. The type species was designated as the crimson-hooded manakin in 1840 by the English zoologist George Robert Gray.
