  Two New Species of the Genus Brignoliolus Ovtchinnikov, 1999 (Araneae, Agelenidae) from Türkiye Abstract Two new species in the funnel web-weaving spider genus Brignoliolus Ovtchinnikov, 1999 are described from South Anatolia: Brignoliolus zorkunensis sp. n. (♂♀) and B. gurgum sp. n. (♂♀). These new species were found from black pine forest and mixed red pine-oak forest in the south and southeastern regions of Anatolia. Their taxonomic relationships are briefly discussed and a map to species of Brignoliolus from Türkiye is provided.
