"Poecile" is a genus of bird in the tit family that is often lumped into the genus "Parus". It has 13–15 species, which are scattered across North America, Europe and Asia; the North American species are the chickadees. In the past, most authorities retained "Poecile" as a subgenus within the genus "Parus", but treatment as a distinct genus, initiated by the American Ornithologists Union, is now widely accepteddel Hoyo "et al." (2007)] . This is supported by mtDNA cytochrome b sequence analysis [Gill "et al." (2005)] .

The genus name has traditionally been treated as feminine (giving name endings such as "cincta"); however, this was not specified by the original genus author Johann Jakob Kaup, and under the ICZN the genus name must therefore be treated by default as masculine, giving name endings such as "cinctus".
