Charippus is a spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders). Its only described species C. errans is endemic to Burma.The species was described from a single male in 1895. Thorell put it close to Euophrys. A redescription of this male together with drawings of pedipalp chelicerae and habitus was provided by Fred Wanless in 1988.The genus name is derived from Ancient Greek Χάριππος (literally graceful rider) according to Thorell taken from Persian mythology.
