Pelycodus ("Axe/bowl tooth" from Ancient Greek πέλυξ (pélux), “bowl, axe” + ὀδούς (odoús), “tooth”) is an extinct genus of adapiform primate that lived during the early Eocene (Wasatchian) period in Europe and North America, particularly Wyoming and New Mexico. It is very closely related to Cantius and may even be its subgenus. It may also have given rise to the Middle Eocene Uintan primate Hesperolemur, although this is controversial. From mass estimates based on the first molar, the two species, P. jarrovii and P. danielsae, weighed 4.5 kg and 6.3 kg respectively and were frugivores with an arboreal, quadrupedal locomotion.

Está estrechamente relacionado con el género Cantius del que incluso podría ser su subgénero. También puede haber dado lugar al primate del Eoceno Medio Hesperolemur, aunque esto es controversial. De las estimaciones de masas basado en el primer molar, las dos especies, P. jarrovii y P. danielsae, pesaban 4,5 kg y 6,3 kg, respectivamente, y fueron frugívoros con locomoción cuadrúpeda arbórea.
