Enoplomischus is a genus of spiders in the family Salticidae (jumping spiders).

This genus has a large spike-like process on its pedicel. This structure probably mimics a similar spike present in the anterior part of the abdomen of the Odontomachus ants that these spiders seem to be modeled after.
