The specimens from the type locality were collected in the remains of a cloud forest. One was on the ground, in leaf litter; using a Bowie knife, the other was dug out of wet wood of a pine log, near the ground surface. The Monte Alban specimen was likely taken from a dark crevice, "where the temperature was much cooler than outside" (Rolf Aalbu, personal communication). Judging from the structural features of the type material, this species may be troglophilic, but not troglobitic, as are its Brazilian congeners (
