Icius pulchellus is a species of jumping spider in the genus Icius that lives in South Africa. It was first described in 2011 by Charles Haddad and Wanda Wesołowska. Only the female has been described. The spider is small, with a carapace measuring between 2.0 and 2.5 mm (0.079 and 0.098 in) long and an abdomen that is between 2.0 and 2.4 mm (0.079 and 0.094 in) in length. It has a sickle-shaped embolus. The spider is similar to the related Icius minimus, but can be distinguished by the pattern of the abdomen, which includes a brown stripe down the middle, and its short fat tibial apophysis.
