Parapsittacopes is an extinct genus of psittacopedid bird from the Early Eocene London Clay, United Kingdom.

The holotype of Parasittacopes was collected from the London Clay near Walton-on-the-Naze by Paul Bergdahl of Kirby-le-Soken, a private collector.

The generic name is from Greek para, meaning "next to", and Psittacopes, the type genus of the Psittacopedidae to which Parapsittacopes is referred.

The coracoid bears a large procoracoid process, protruding from the side of the bone, and does not have a foramen for the supracoracoid nerve but rather a groove.

[1] Parapsittacopes was a member of the Psittacopedidae, a family of small birds that are likely a stem lineage related to the Passeriformes, the songbirds.

When constrained to those molecular results, Parapsittacopes, along with the rest of the Psittacopedidae, were found to be most closely related to a clade of the Passeriformes and the Zygodactylidae, another extinct family of small arboreal birds of the Eocene.
