Larinia is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1874.

==Life style== The spiders have straw-coloured bodies. This is a typical grassland species, resembling grass in shape and colour. They construct loosely woven webs in grass. They are not easily seen and usually sampled with a sweep net. When at rest they stretch their body and legs along a blade of grass.
