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

As of October 2025, this genus includes 22 species:
