Les pomacentridés (Pomacentridae, du grec poma opercule et kentron dard) sont une famille de poissons perciformes, comprenant les demoiselles et les poissons-clowns. La plupart vivent en eau salée, mais certains fréquentent les eaux saumâtres. Ils sont remarquables pour leur robuste constitution et territorialité. Ils pratiquent l'hermaphrodisme successif de type protandre. Nombre d'entre eux sont brillamment colorés, ce qui les rend populaires dans les aquariums. Les membres de cette famille sont parfois classés en quatre sous-familles : Amphiprioninae, Chrominae, , et Pomacentrinae, partition non retenue par FishBase, par WoRMS, par BioLib.
