Chaetocneme is genus of skipper butterflies in the family Hesperiidae.
The genus was established in 1860 with "Chaetocneme corvus" – then newly described as it was believed – as the type species. However, the same species was already described by Pieter Cramer in 1775 under the name "Papilio helirius". Thus, the type species is nowadays called Chaetocneme helirius.
