description Miagrammopes sp. Overview
Miagrammopes is a genus of uloborid spiders, and Miagrammopes sp. indicates a specimen or record identified only to the genus rather than to a confirmed species. Members of the genus are distinguished by reduced eyes, with four or fewer reported, and by single-line capture webs made with sticky silk. The group is of interest because its web architecture differs from the familiar orb webs built by many other spiders.
