This spider has amazing colors with glittering blue and magenta colors on itz body.. The two horizontal stripes on itz head looks in green color in one angle and aqua blue in other angle..!!! This spiders fangs and legs were quite glittering in sunshine.. It was just 3-4 mm in size..:):) The male is very slender. Its carapace is orange-red, with a narrow bluish-white, iridescent transverse stripe between the eyes. The robust chelicerae do not point forward. The long scutum of the opisthosoma is dark brown and covered with dense, bronze-colored hairs. The long legs are brownish-yellow, with the first pair, and the last segments of the others brown..
