Bungulla fusca is a species of mygalomorph spider in the Idiopidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2018 by Australian arachnologists Michael Rix, Robert Raven and Mark Harvey. The specific epithet fusca comes from the Latin for “dark“ or “dusky“, with reference to the spiders’ dark brown body colouration.[1][2]
