Wiltona is a monotypic genus of New Zealand false wolf spiders containing the single species, Wiltona filicicola. It was first described by Raymond Robert Forster in 1973 as Haurokoa filicicola.[2] However, this name was already used for an extinct genus of triton shells, and it was renamed Wiltona by A. Ö. Koçak & M. Kemal in 2008.[3][1]
