''Hyelaphus'' is a genus of relatively small South and Southeast Asia deer that are overall brown. The three species are all threatened, and two of the species are restricted to a few small islands. Originally considered a subgenus of ''Axis'', genetic evidence indicates that ''Hyelaphus'' is closer to the genus ''Rusa'' than ''Axis''. Consequently, ''Hyelaphus'' was elevated to genus status, leaving the chital as the only member of ''Axis''.〔Pitraa, Fickela, Meijaard, Groves (2004). Evolution and phylogeny of old world deer.
