Cheiracanthium abbreviatum is a spider species found in France and Denmark.[1]

The species was first described in 1878 by Eugène Simon,[1] based on a single female specimen caught in the dunes of Cap Ferret under Mediterranean strawflower (Helichrysum stoechas) shrubbery.[2] Simon described the species as being very similar to Cheiracanthium erraticum, but with differences in the femoral spines of the fourth leg as well as abdominal banding.[2]
