The Kropyvna Regiment (Ukrainian: Кропивнянський полк, romanized: Kropyvniantskyi polk) was one the territorial-administrative subdivisions of the Cossack Hetmanate. The regiment's capital was the city of Kropyvna, now a village in Cherkasy Oblast of central Ukraine.

In 1648, during Khmelnytsky Uprising , Irkliiv Regiment was raised, with colonel Mykhailo Teliuchenko commanding it.[1] On 16 October 1649 Irkliiv and neighboring part of Lubny Regiment were merged to form Kropyvna Regiment.[2][3] The only regimental colonel was Filon Dzhelaliy.
