The eye area has a rust-red underlay and the opisthosoma has a rust-red band in the middle, which can sometimes be very broad and is framed laterally by two or four white spots.strikingly white haired. Opisthosoma posteriorly with 2 round, white spots.

The eye area is surrounded by almost white or yellowish hairs, which continue over the pedipalps, which are impressively white or yellowish. The opisthosoma is also surrounded by white-yellowish hairs and sometimes appears quite colourful with a white-yellow stripe in the middle and orange stripes next to it. In some animals, however, the opisthosoma is quite uniformly yellow-brown with washed-out rusty-red spots and dots.
