"Uloborus glomosus" is a species of spider in the family Uloboridae. It is one of only a few "Uloborus" species found in North America and the only species found in Canada. Like all other species in the Uloboridae, "Uloborus glomosus" does not possess venom glands, relying instead on cribellate, a fuzzy non sticky silk that they use to trap and then wrap their prey.
