Periporphyrus is a genus of grosbeaks in the cardinal family Cardinalidae.
The genus was introduced by the German naturalist Ludwig Reichenbach in 1850.[1] The type species was subsequently designated as the red-and-black grosbeak.[2][3] The name Periporphyrus combines the Ancient Greek peri meaning "exceedingly" with porphureos meaning "rosy".[4]
The genus contains two species:[5]
