Synsphyronus meganennus is a species of pseudoscorpion in the Garypidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 1987 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey. The specific epithet meganennus comes from Greek mega ('large') and nennos ('uncle'), with reference to the close relationship the species has with S. hadronennus, S. paradoxus and S. heptatrichus.[1][2]
Body lengths are 2.8–3.3 mm. Colouration is dark reddish-brown.[1]
