Euriphellus is a monotypic Neotropical butterfly genus in the family Hesperiidae (Eudaminae). The genus was separated from Dyscophellus by George Traut Austin in 2008. The single species in the genus is Euriphellus euribates.

The wingspan is 28–30 mm. The forewings are tawny brown, with three large yellow-orange discal partially translucent macules and two to three translucent subapical macules of the same colour. The hindwings have a small area of shiny scales. Adults are crepuscular.
Subspecies

Euriphellus euribates euribates (from Costa Rica south to Bolivia and southern Brazil)
