Nungia is a genus of the jumping spiders known from China and Vietnam. It contains only one species, Nungia epigynalis., described from a single 6 mm long female, although males have later been found.

The thorax of the female is light brown, the opisthosoma greyish-yellow with longitudinal rows of grey spots. The legs are yellow, except for the stronger first pair, where all but the two distal segments are light brown.

The Nùng are a people in Vietnam and China. The species name is derived from "epigyne".
