Bijoaraneus is a genus of orb-weaver spiders in the family Araneidae. The genus was established in 2021 by Tanikawa, Yamasaki & Petcharad when they recognized that several species previously placed in Araneus formed a distinct evolutionary lineage. As of September 2025, it contains five species distributed across Asia, Africa, and Australia.
