Uloborus is a spider genus in the family Uloboridae with 72 described species.[1] Most species occur in the tropics and subtropics, with only few species in northern America and Europe.

The chelicerae of these cribellate spiders are robust, but, as all Uloboridae, there are no venom glands. Eight small eyes are present.
