Gibbium psylloides, also known as the hump beetle or the smooth spider beetle (the latter of which it shares with Gibbium aequinoctiale), is a species of spider beetle in the genus Gibbium. It is native to the Palearctic, Southeast Asia, and North Africa. It was first described and given a binomial name by Paweł Czenpiński in 1778. North American references to G. psylloides actually refer to Gibbium aequinoctiale.
