'''''Octonoba''''' is a genus of Asian cribellate orb weavers first described in 1979 by Brent Opell.<ref name=Opell>{{cite journal| last=Opell| first=B. D.| year=1979| title=Revision of the genera and tropical American species of the spider family Uloboridae| journal=Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology| volume=148| pages=443–549}}</ref> Members of this genus and those of ''Purumitra'' both have a large concave median apophysis and a conspicuous hematodocha. However, these spiders are generally much larger, with a carapace greater than 1.4 millimeters long, where those of ''Purumitra'' are usually less than 1 millimeter long.<ref name=Opell />
