Megaeupoa is a small genus of Asian jumping spiders first described by Y. J. Lin and S. Q. Li in 2020. [2] It was not explicitly assigned to a position within the Salticidae, but the name Megaeupoa refers to the "evolutionary relationship" of the genus (Megaeupoa means 'large Eupoa'). [2] As of March 2022 [update] it contains only two species: M. gravelyi and M. yanfengi. [1]
