Viroqua is a spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders). Its only described species, V. ultima (described by Koch in 1881), is only found in Australia. It is likely that the Peckhams derived the genus name from Viroqua, Wisconsin, as they named genera after unrelated locations on several other occasions.
