Coloration of few live specimens examined similar to those preserved in alcohol: cephalothorax uniformly pale orange to tan-orange, darkening anteriorly, width about 2/3 of length, widest at legs II-III, males slightly wider than females, covered with thin, white hairs with scattered, dark, anteriorly or medially directed setae. Longitudinal row of single, anteriorly-directed setae between eyes and thoracic furrow. Eyes subequal surrounded by black rings. AER recurved in dorsal view, slightly procurved in anterior view, eyes separated by less than eye diameter.

Pre-coxal triangles lacking. Trochanters notched, III and IV deeply so. Legs similar in color to cephalothorax with heavy spination. Leg IV longest, about 15-40% longer than legs I-III which are all subequal in length with minute plumose or feathery hairs. Tarsi lacking claw tufts, dense with white scopulae, sometimes appearing flexible in preserved specimens. Tarsal claws of posterior legs extremely long with few teeth at base, almost hidden (

Abdomen uniformly cream to tan, in rare instances brown, with scattered dark setae, no conspicuous markings, many long setae on anterior surface, oval in shape, width about 2/3 of length in well-preserved specimens. Occasionally heart can be seen through dorsal integument. In gross examination, ALS occasionally very long appearing gnaphosoid in character in preserved specimens otherwise appearing short and conical. Embolus of male palp dorsally projecting on apical-most portion of tegulum, membranous conductor dorsal to embolus. Median apophysis on retrolateral surface of tegulum above midline, translucent, elongate and concave. Epigynum with median plate, posteriorly-directed spines lateral where epigynal plate originates anteriorly. Anterior epigynal openings sometimes not readily visible. In dorsal view, epigynum with two simple oval spermathecae, each with duct arching anteriolaterally to small rotund structure (bursa copulatrix?).

About half of the females of each species were dissected to inspect the dorsal view of the genitalia, leaving the other females intact for future researchers. There are no consistent internal characters that allow species separation. The small anterior rotund structures (bursa copulatrix?) for both species may lie directly on top of the spermathecae or extend laterally (
