Bagauda is a genus of thread-legged bug within the subfamily Emesinae, consisting of about 20 known species. Many species in this genus are associated with caves, with some being exclusively cave-dwelling. Bagauda is synonymous with the genus Pleias Kirkaldy, 1901, but Bagauda has become more commonly used. The genus is restricted to the Old World tropics.
