The imaged specimen was collected by Mark Hura in November 1997 from south of Morgan where it was found at night, alive on the ground under a flowering mallee Eucalypt.
Bílý & Hanlon 2020 noted that this species had 'not been collected for decades' and their revision only presented data for old specimens.
