When threatened, it brushes urticating hairs off its palps (the small leg-like organs near the mouth) by rubbing them against its chelicerae (jaw parts). It will also rise up and show its fangs.1

bun da savair

Fatgs

Its urticating hairs grow on its palps, not on its abdomen as they do in most New World tarantulas.1

It is a fast and aggressive species that will readily rise up and present its fangs to a predator.1

It builds a heavily webbed burrow under the topsoil, or among branches, rocks and other forest floor debris.1

Most members of its subfamily live in trees, but this species lives mainly on or near the forest floor.1
