Ὕπανις, ποταμὸς καὶ πόλις μεταξὺ τοῦ Πόντου καὶ τῆς Μαιώτιδος λίμνης. Ἀλέξανδρος δ´ ὁ πολυίστωρ φησὶν ὅτι ὁ Ὕπανις διχῇ σχιζόμενος τὸ μὲν ἓν μέρος εἰς τὴν Μαιῶτιν λίμνην βάλλει, τὸ δ´ ἕτερον εἰς τὸν Πόντον. Ἡρόδοτος δ´ ἐν τετάρτῳ καὶ κρήνην τινὰ πικρὰν εἰς αὐτὸν ἐγχεῖσθαι καὶ ἄποτον ποιεῖν τὸν ποταμόν. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Ὑπανίτης ὡς Ταναΐτης.
