''Pyrrhochalcia'' is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae. It contains only one species, ''Pyrrhochalcia iphis'', the African Giant Skipper, which is found in Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, the Republic of Congo and Angola.〔(Afrotropical Butterflies: Hesperiidae - Subfamily Coeliadinae )〕 It was first described by Dru Drury in 1773.
The habitat consists of forests, including dry coastal forests. Adults of both sexes are attracted to flowers, including coral creeper. Males are also attracted to bird droppings and are known to mud-puddle.
