Rooseveltia mutilla |
Ogdenia is a spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders). Its only described species, O. mutilla, is endemic to Sarawak, Borneo.
Peckham & Peckham regarded the species as being close to Hasarius. The female epigyne was drawn by Proszynsky (1984).
The genus was originally called Rooseveltia, but replaced by the original authors a year later.[1]
