Type species. Oedignatha scrobiculata Thorell 1881, by original designation.
Diagnosis. Distinguished from all other corinnids by the presence of a brush of dark hair close to the median base of the posterior lateral spinnerets in both sexes, and a conical hump on clypeus in front of AME. Embolus of male palp thread-like, conductor sclerotized, and tegular apophysis lanceolate and membranous. Epigynum usually with a posterior window membranous area, connecting duct short or absent (Deeleman-Reinhold 2001).
Remarks. Thirty four species have been reported in the world, which are mainly distributed in the Oriental region, from the Seychelles and Sri Lanka to the Philippines, eastward to New Guinea and Samoa. Only one species has been recorded from China (Oedignatha platnicki Song & Zhu 1998, Hong Kong) (Platnick 2004).
