Mhic Mac Comhaltan Ua Cleirigh (died 1025) was King of Ui Fiachrach Aidhne.

An unnamed grandson of Comhaltan Ua Cleirigh was the last Ua Cleirigh ruler of Aidhne. Henceforth, the family was dispersed entirely form Aidhne into north Connacht; one Gilla Isa Ó Cléirigh would be Bishop of Leyny (Achonry) before his death in 1230. Descendants would eventually become the Ó Cléirigh Bardic family of Tír Chonaill.
