==Diagnosis==
 
The female differs by the spermatheca broad at its base, tapering to a single or bifid slender spiraled distal region (Fig. 6). Additionally, females have cephalothorax and legs dark brown or brown, and the abdomen metallic yellowish-green, dorsally with central longitudinal black stripe and a series of five black stripes on both sides, extending laterally (Fig. 26).Male unknown.
 
 
==Etymology==
 
The specific nameis derived fromthe Brazilian indigenous Tupi language, meaning “child”. It refers to the local children that found the type specimens high in a tree in Areia, State of Paraíba, Brazil, during an arachnological expedition.<br />
