Mungy Branch is a stream in northwestern Phelps and northeastern Pulaski counties in the Ozarks of the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of Duncan Creek.[2]

The stream headwaters arise in extreme eastern Pulaski County just east of Missouri Route MM about 3.5 miles east of Dixon (at 37°59′03″N 92°01′31″W / 37.98417°N 92.02528°W / 37.98417; -92.02528[1]). The stream flows east to its confluence with Duncan Creek in Phelps County (at 37°59′24″N 91°58′43″W / 37.99000°N 91.97861°W / 37.99000; -91.97861[1]) about one-half mile above that stream's confluence with the Gasconade River.[3]

Mungy Branch has the name of the local Mungy family.[4]
