The spider fauna of mountains, including national parks, in Korea was intensively surveyed in 2018-2019. During the seasonal surveys, males of Clubiona bakurovi Mikhailov, 1990 (family Clubionidae Wagner, 1887) and Otacilia ansula sp. nov. (family Phrurolithidae Banks, 1892) were collected from shrub foliage and leaf litter, respectively, in mountainous mixed forests. The males of Otacilia ansula sp. nov. can be easily distinguished from those of other its congeners by the slender and hook-shaped retrolateral tibial apophysis, ovoid distal tegular apophysis, and one dorsal spine on the femur with seven pairs of ventral spines on the tibia of leg I. This study provides descriptions of these two species with diagnosis, measurements, and morphological photographs.
