Description
This is one of the smallest mygalomorph spiders, with adults only measuring 3 to 4 mm. The coloration varies from light brown to yellow-brown to a darker reddish brown, with no markings on its abdomen. Their chelicerae project forward, and one pair of spinnerets is very long. They possess a second pair of book lungs, which appear as light patches behind the genital furrow.
