Uluella is a monotypic genus of jumping spiders containing the single species, Uluella formosa. It was first described by Arthur M. Chickering in 1946,[2] and is found in Panama and Ecuador.[1][3] The spider is an iridescent ant mimic about 4 mm in length.[3] It lives in association with bambusoid grasses of the tropical rainforests from which it constructs retreats made from rolled leaves.[3]
