}}Erriapus ({{IPAc-en|ˌ|ɛr|i|ˈ|æ|p|ə|s}} {{respell|ERR|ee|AP|əs}}; Latin: Erriapus, Erriappus), also Saturn XXVIII (28), is a prograde irregular satellite of Saturn. It was discovered by Brett Gladman, John J. Kavelaars and colleagues in 2000, and given the temporary designation S/2000 S 10.[5][6] It was named Erriapo in August 2003[7] after Erriapus, a giant in Gaulish mythology; the name was changed from dative Erriapo to nominative Erriapus per IAU conventions in late 2007.[8][9]

Erriapus is about 10 kilometres in diameter, and orbits Saturn at an average distance of 17,3 Gm in 871 days.

As a member of the Gallic group of irregular satellites, which share similar orbital characteristics and a light-red colour, Erriapus is hypothesized to have its origin in the break-up of a common progenitor of the group,[4][10] or to be a fragment of its largest member, Albiorix.[11]
