Spidia smithi is a moth in the Drepanidae family. It was described by Warren in 1902.[1] It is found in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda.[2]

The length of the forewings is 21.5-23 mm for males and 23-25 mm for females. Adults are similar to Spidia inangulata, but there is a poorly defined oblique postmedial fascia on the forewings and there are no dark costal markings in the costal area.[3]
