Platysteira is a genus of birds in the wattle-eye family Platysteiridae that are found in tropical Africa.
==Taxonomy== The genus Platysteira was introduced in 1830 by the English naturalists William Jardine and Prideaux John Selby. The name combines the Ancient Greek πλατυς/platus meaning "broad" with στειρα/steira meaning "ship's keel". Jardine and Selby did not specify a type species but in 1840 the English zoologist George Gray designated the type as Muscicapa melanoptera Gmelin, 1789. This is a junior synonym of Muscicapa cyanea, Müller, PLS, 1776, the brown-throated wattle-eye.
