Euagrus is a genus of spider in the family Euagridae. It was first described by Anton Ausserer in 1875.[2] It has been referred to as "Evagrus", but this is a transcript error, not an accepted synonym.[3] It is very similar to the genus Allothele, and several species have been transferred there, including Euagrus caffer, Euagrus regnardi, and Euagrus teretis.
