This small spider is restricted to coastal Queensland, although it may be found elsewhere when more detailed surveys are carried out. It was described in 1916 by Rainbow, clearly for the rather bizarre spines on the high point of the rear of the abdomen. It is rather rare, though has been found in Townsville gardens, even being brought into the house on a basil leaf (Malcolm Tattersall, pers. comm.) ♀ 3mm ♂ 2mm
