Members of this species are endogean in habit. Most of the type series was collected from a buried pipe trap operated from March to July. The trap was set deeply in a layer of pure red clay, well below the shallow organic soil horizon. A late-instar larva was found underneath a deeply embedded rock in early February, indicating either overwintering of the egg or larval stage, or winter breeding and oviposition. A female adult was collected underneath a large, embedded stone. This female was kept alive for several months in a container with soil from the same locality packed into the bottom. The female quickly found a way around and underneath the packed clay soil on the bottom of the container, and apparently spent the remainder of its life in an inverted position on the underside of the clay. Given this behavior, and the microhabitat in which the trap that collected most of the type series was set, the habitat of this species is probably the series of crevices formed naturally in clay soils. Although clay is typically thought to be impervious, it forms naturally into aggregates called “ peds ” (
