Flagelliphantes is a genus of dwarf spiders that was first described by Michael I. Saaristo & A. V. Tanasevitch in 1996.[2] It was originally erected to contain three species, all found in Russia: F. bergstromi, F. flagellifer, and F. sterneri.[1] In 2023, F. yunxia from Jilin province, China was assigned to this genus.[3]
