[2] This species can be found in very different habitats, but frequently it is present in agricultural areas, especially in the field of grazing cattle.
[5] In daylight this spider discloses a quite intense purple-blue iridescence on the dorsal surface of the cephalothorax and on legs, palps and chelicerae.
The long setae covering the legs and palps are dark red-brown.
This climbing species builds its nests primarily in hollows in the trees, sometimes in the vicinity of epiphytic plants.
These spiders eat mostly crickets, cockroaches, meal worms, waxworms and darkling beetles, but they also can catch small rodents.
