Mongolicosa songi is a species of wolf spider found in Xinjiang, China and adjacent areas of Mongolia.

This is a dirty-brown coloured spider up to 7.4 mm in length with few distinguishing markings apart from a faint heart-shaped mark on the abdomen. Its closest known relative is M. gobiensis, from which it can be distinguished only by details of the genitalia.
