The cinnamon-faced tyrannulet (Phylloscartes parkeri) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae, the tyrant flycatchers.

[2] The cinnamon-faced tyrannulet is the last of four species of genus Phylloscartes described in the late twentieth century.

[3] The cinnamon-faced tyrannulet's specific epithet honors American ornithologist Theodore A. Parker III for his "skill in the field [and] unbridled enthusiasm for birds and conservation".

Adults have a cinnamon-rufous forecrown, lores, and eye-ring and a faint white streak behind the eye.

Their wings are dusky to blackish with bright yellowish olive-green edges on the flight feathers.

Both sexes have a dark brown iris, a long black bill, and medium gray legs and feet.

It inhabits intact humid montane evergreen forest at elevations between 650 and 1,550 m (2,100 and 5,100 ft) in Peru and perhaps lower in Bolivia.

It typically perches horizontally on a branch, sometimes with its tail slightly cocked up, and makes short sallies to grab and hover-glean prey from leaves and twigs.
