Ogdenia is a genus of the jumping spiders endemic to Sarawak, Borneo. As of 2017, it contains only one species, Ogdenia mutilla.[1] Peckham & Peckham regarded the species as being close to Hasarius. The female epigyne was drawn by Proszynsky (1984).

Name

The genus was originally called Rooseveltia, but replaced by the original authors a year later.[2] The original describers thought the species to mimic a mutillid wasp.[3]
