Hadronyche nimoola is a species of funnel-web spider in the Atracidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2010 by Australian arachnologist Michael R. Gray. The species epithet nimoola is an Aboriginal term meaning ‘steep slope’, with reference to the spider's head profile.[1][2]
