Once an insect is caught in the web, the spider bites it and injects venom to stop its prey from moving, later wrapping it in silk.

The species in the genus are haplogynes that have flat oval carapaces and six eyes which are arranged into three groups of two, known as dyads.

They build a tubular retreat at the tip, camouflaged with leaf litter or similar substances, where thin egg sacs are positioned.

A horizontal piece of web stretches from the entrance and the spider uses it as platform to move from the bottom.

The spider later wraps silk around its prey to hold it still or to bring the insect's wings together by its body.

The female will at first protect her eggs from predators, such as from the jumping spiders Metaphidippus manni and Habronattus tranquillus.
