sp. nov. were found between April and August suggesting reproductive activity mainly in winter (or the dry season in northern latitudes). Mature females were found between March and November, also suggesting that this species is not reproductively active in summer (or the wet season). The species has generally been found in open forests where the spiders build large orb-webs between shrubs and trees. Like
