Ohlertidion is a genus of comb-footed spiders (family Theridiidae) that was first described by J. Wunderlich in 2008.{{cite journal| last=Wunderlich| first=J.| year=2008| title=On extant and fossil (Eocene) European comb-footed spiders (Araneae: Theridiidae), with notes on their subfamilies, and with descriptions of new taxa| journal=Beiträge zur Araneologie| pages=819–859| volume=5}} {{as of|2019|09}} it contains three species with a holarctic distribution, including Greenland: O. lundbecki, O. ohlerti, and O. thaleri.{{cite journal| title=Gen.
