sp. nov. was found commonly in both Kodagu and Kerala. Most collecting days in both locations were rainy and overcast. The spiders seemed to be exclusively vegetation dwellers, often found on small to medium-sized trees. Although they were collected from diverse habitats, they were mostly collected in the understorey, edge, and disturbed habitats of the evergreen forests of Honey Valley Estate in Kodagu. In Fringe Ford, Kerala, they were collected from the secondary evergreen growth of an inoperative tea estate.
