Sagellula is a genus of east Asian huntsman spiders that was first described by Embrik Strand in 1942.[2] It was originally described under the name "Sagella",[3] but this was changed to Sagellula when a senior homonym was discovered.[2] As of September 2019 it contains two species, found in China and Japan: S. octomunita and S. xizangensis.[1]
