Mayrimunia is a genus of small seed-eating birds in the family Estrildidae that are endemic to New Guinea.

The genus was introduced in 1949 by the German ornithologist Hans Edmund Wolters with the streak-headed mannikin as the type species.[1][2] The name was chosen to honour the evolutionary biologist Ernst Mayr and combines his name with the genus Munia.[3]

The two species now placed in genus were formerly placed in the genus Lonchura. They were moved to this resurrected genus based on a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2020.[4]
