Stiphrornis is a genus of passerine birds containing the forest robins. These are members of the Old World flycatcher family Muscicapidae and are found in the tropical rain-forests of West Africa. The genus formerly contained only a single species, the forest robin, but this species complex has been split so that the genus now contains three species.

==Taxonomy== The genus Stiphrornis was introduced in 1855 by the German ornithologist Gustav Hartlaub with Stiphrornis erythrothorax Hartlaub (the orange-breasted forest robin) as the type species. The genus name combines the Ancient Greek στιφρος/stiphros meaning "sturdy" or "stout" with ορνις/ornis meaning "bird".
