A new species of clubionid spider, Matidia spatulata sp. nov., is described from the low mountain areas of Taiwan. It can be distinguished from other congeners by having a coiled, ribbon-shaped embolus and a spatulate tibial apophysis widened distally and densely covered with fine denticles on its distal end. The female remains unknown. The genus Matidia is reported from Taiwan for the first time.
