Necatia magnidens
Necatia is a genus of the jumping spider family Salticidae. Its only species, Necatia magnidens, is found in southern China.
The species is only known from a single female specimen, collected in 1872 by A. David, and described by Schenkel almost a hundred years later. Nothing more has been reported of the species since.

Description
From above, the carapace is U-shaped, slightly flared at the front. The female is slightly larger than six millimetres (0.24 in). The posterior lateral eyes are located almost halfway along the carapace. The abdomen is longer than broad and the legs are spiny. Schenkel described the specimen as having an overall brownish black color, "which is, perhaps, not surprising for a specimen preserved for so long".
