Clubiona natalica is a species of spider in the family Clubionidae. It is endemic to KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, known only from the type locality given as "Natal" and collected prior to 1897.[2]
Conservation
The species is listed as Data Deficient for taxonomic reasons. The status of the species remains obscure and more sampling is needed to determine the species' range. The vague original locality description makes precise distribution mapping impossible.[3]
