Hafferia is a genus of insectivorous passerine birds in the antbird family, Thamnophilidae.

A molecular phylogenetic study published in 2013 found that Myrmeciza, as then defined, was polyphyletic.

[2] In the resulting rearrangement to create monophyletic genera these three species were moved to the newly erected genus Hafferia with the blue-lored antbird as the type species.

[1] The name of the new genus was chosen to commemorate the German ornithologist Jürgen Haffer.
