2E1087FFFF9C6B78F09DFD7EFCF2F892.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. As the single genus of Urocteinae, Uroctea share almost the same body shape as other oecobiids but differ from Oecobiinae genera (Oecobius Lucas, 1846, Paroecobius Lamoral, 1981 and Platoecobius Chamberlin & Ivie, 1935) by the larger body size (> 5) and absence of cribellum (Le Peru 2011; Lamoral 1981; Shear 1970); and from Uroecobius and possibly Urocteana by their larger size (Kullmann & Zimmermann 1976).	en	Yang, Zi-Zhong, Yang, Zhi-Bin, Zhao, Yu, Zhang, Zhi-Sheng (2019): Review of the tent-web spider genus Uroctea Dufour, 1820 in China, with descriptions of two new species (Araneae: Oecobiidae).
