Mizaga is a genus of West African cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, and was first described by Eugène Simon in 1898. As of May 2019 it contains only two species, both found in Senegal: M. chevreuxi and M. racovitzai. Originally placed with the funnel weavers, it was moved to Dictynidae in 1967.
