Genus Brigittea Lehtinen, 1967

Comments.

Brigittea is a small genus with six nominal species distributed in the Western Palaearctic, all of which were previously classified in Dictyna Sundevall, 1833. Males have a highly elevated cephalic region and chelicerae with lateral condyles and deeply concaved mesal margins. Females differ from those of the related genera by their spaced receptacles (vs touching each other).
