Ocrisiona is a spider genus of the Salticidae family (jumping spiders), mainly found in Australia and New Zealand.[1]

O. frenata from Hong Kong belongs not to Ocrisiona, but to a different, unspecified genus, according to Marek Żabka (1990). Simon places the genus Ocrisiona close to Holoplatys.[2]
