Mantisatta is a genus of Southeast Asian jumping spiders that was first described by C. A. Warburton in 1900.[2] As of June 2019[update] it contains only two species, found only in the Philippines and Malaysia: M. longicauda and M. trucidans.[1] The name is a combination of "mantis", in reference to its long first legs, and the common salticid suffix -attus.
