Uloborus diversus Marx, 1898

Uloborus diversus is a species of cribellate orb weaver in the spider family Uloboridae. It is found in the desert regions of the Southwestern United States and Mexico. It is an important model species for understanding the evolution of spidroins and understanding orb-weaving behavior. To provide resources for this research a 2.15-Gbp chromosome-level draft genome assembly was sequenced and assembled to 10 chromosomes.
