Kainops is a genus of trilobites from the family Phacopidae, order Phacopida.^[1] It can be distinguished from Paciphacops by the greater number of facets to the eye (6–8 per row, compared to 3–4 in Paciphacops).^[2] The form of the furrow between the palpebral area and the palpebral lobe also distinguishes Kainops from the genera Paciphacops and Viaphacops.^[2]
