Neomyro is a genus of South Pacific araneomorph spiders in the family Toxopidae, and was first described by Raymond Robert Forster & C. L. Wilton in 1973.[2] As of May 2019 it contains only three species, all found in New Zealand: N. amplius, N. circe, and N. scitulus.[1] Originally placed with the intertidal spiders, it was moved to the Toxopidae in 2017.[3]
