Huttoniidae is a family of ecribellate araneomorph spiders containing a single genus, Huttonia, itself containing a single described species, Huttonia palpimanoides. It is known only from New Zealand.
Very few specimens of the genus were known until it was discovered that they primarily inhabited dead fronds of rainforest ferns.
