L'îlot Menghu (Chinois traditionnel: 猛虎嶼; pinyin: Měnghǔ Yǔ; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: bíng-hóo-sū, littéralement "îlot du tigre") est le territoire le plus éloigné de l'île de Taïwan. Son nom d'origine est îlot Huzi, mais la République de Chine a changé son nom en 1960. Cependant, la République populaire de Chine ne reconnaît pas le changement de nom et l'îlot porte toujours le nom «Huziyu» sur ses cartes.
