Eboo is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is a genus with many species endemic to Australia.

This genus was previously known as Tomyris (named by Félicien Chapuis in 1874) or Odontionopa (named by Wilhelm Ferdinand Erichson in 1842). However, both of these names were found to be preoccupied, and the genus was renamed to Eboo by C. A. M. Reid in 1993. The generic name is a phonetic rendering of ibu, the Indonesian word for "mother".[1]

The genus is placed in the subtribe Ebooina, also named by Reid, a replacement name for "Tomyrina".[1]
