Huntia murrindal is a cave spider in the family Zoropsidae.[1] It was first described in 2001 by Michael R. Gray & Judith A. Thompson.[2][3] The genus name honours arachnologist, Glenn Stuart Hunt (1944-1999),[2] and the species epithet, murrindal, references the type locality.[2]
It is known only from the Buchan-Murrindal cave system in Victoria.[2]
