Euochin albopalpalis, synonym Euophrys albopalpalis, is a species of jumping spiders found in mainland China and Taiwan.[1] It is a tiny spider with a total length (excluding legs) of less than 3 mm. The sparsely hairy carapace is dark brown with black margins and a black w-shaped mark about halfway along the back. The legs are dark brown and marked with yellowish-brown rings. The oval abdomen is marked dorsally with two light triangular markings followed by four light curved lines.[citation needed]

The main distinguishing feature between this species and the similar Euophrys nepalica is the presence of dense white hairs on the palps.[citation needed]
