Misionella is a genus of crevice weaver spiders. Currently there are two described living species.

A spider fossil that was found in 15- to 20-million-year-old Miocene amber from the Dominican Republic was in 2005 described as Misionella didicostae (Penney 2005a). A second specimen was discussed (Penney 2005b) soon thereafter.
