Detalik ibadan is a species of jumping spider in the genus Detalik. It is endemic to Nigeria and was first described in 2021 by Wanda Wesołowska. A small spider like all those in the genus, it has a cephalothorax measuring between 1.9 and 2.0 mm (0.07 and 0.08 in) long and an abdomen between 1.7 and 2.0 mm (0.07 and 0.08 in) long. The cephalothorax has a brown top, or carapace, that has white patches on its back and a light brown underside, or sternum. The spider's eyes are large and set on short tubercles, or nodules. The spider has distinctive copulatory organs. The male has an irregular-shaped palpal bulb with characteristic spikes, or apophyses. One, that is attached to the bulb itself, is large and sickle-shaped, the other short and sharp. The female has not been described.
