Nanocambridgea is a monotypic genus of intertidal spiders containing the single species, Nanocambridgea gracilipes. It was first described by Raymond Robert Forster & C. L. Wilton in 1973,[2] and is found on New Zealand.[1] Originally placed with the Stiphidiidae,[2] it was moved to the Desidae after a 2017 genetic study.[3] A male described as N. grandis in 2000[4] was synonymized with Cambridgea reinga in 2011.[5]
