***Minotauria*** is a [genus](/source/Genus) of [Balkan](/source/Balkans) [woodlouse hunting spiders](/source/Dysderidae) that was first described by [Władysław Kulczyński](/source/W%C5%82adys%C5%82aw_Kulczy%C5%84ski) in 1903.[2] As of May 2019[\[update\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Minotauria&action=edit) it contains only two species: *M. attemsi* and *M. fagei*.[1] In 1847, it was argued to be a synonym of *[Stalita](/source/Stalita)*.[3]
