It lives in montane grasslands and shrublands.The spider is medium sized with a cephalothorax that is typically 2.6 mm (0.10 in) long and an abdomen 2.9 mm (0.11 in) long. The pear-shaped carapace is brown with a black eye field. The abdomen is dark grey with a pattern of lighter patches on top and yellowish underneath. The legs are yellowish. The spider is hard to distinguish from others in the genus without a study of its copulatory organs. Only the female has been identified. It has two distinctive pockets in the fold at the back of epigyne that is visible externally and an internal structure that includes long accessory glands and bean-shaped spermathecae.

Spider anatomy
The anatomy of spiders includes many characteristics shared with other arachnids. These characteristics include bodies divided into two tagmata (sections or segments), eight jointed legs, no wings or antennae, the presence of chelicerae and pedipalps, simple eyes, and an exoskeleton, which is periodically shed.

Spiders also have several adaptations that distinguish them from other arachnids. All spiders are capable of producing silk of various types, which many species use to build webs to ensnare prey. Most spiders possess venom, which is injected into prey (or defensively, when the spider feels threatened) through the fangs of the chelicerae. Male spiders have specialized pedipalps that are used to transfer sperm to the female during mating. Many species of spiders exhibit a great deal of sexual dimorphism.
