Bungulla sampeyae 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 sampeyae honours Alison Sampey for her efforts during the fieldwork of the Southern Carnarvon Survey, and for her assistance in the analysis and publication of the data.[1][2]
