Artoria is a genus of spiders in the family Lycosidae. It was first described in 1877 by Tamerlan Thorell,[1][2] and the type species is Artoria parvula.[3] In 1960, Roewer erected the genera Artoriella and Trabeola.[3][4] However, in 2002, Volker Framenau reviewed Artoria and synonymised both these genera with Artoria.[3][5]
Species of this genus are widespread throughout south-east Asia and found in all states and territories of Australia.[3]
