Mopsolodes is a genus of South Pacific jumping spiders that was first described by Marek Michał Żabka in 1991.[2] As of July 2019[update] it contains only two species, found only in Australia and Papua New Guinea: M. australensis and M. furculosus.[1] The name is derived from the closely related genus Mopsus.
