[1] The species was allocated to the genus Asemonea, first raised by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1869.

It is generally whitish-yellow with heavy black markings but appears iridescent green when lit.

The abdomen is black and covered with grey-black hairs, typically 1.2 mm (0.047 in) long.

The spider has long thin pale yellow legs that also have blackish markings.

The pedipalp is also pale yellow with black markings and a distinctive apophysis, or appendage, on its femur.

[1] The species is similar to Asemonea minuta but can be distinguished by its coloration, the shape of the appendage on its palpal femora and the lip on its dorsal tibial apophysis.

[1] The holotype was found in Pinang Island in 1979 in vegetation along the road near Teluk Bahang.
