This species is currently known from a single male only and differs from the two other males in Leviaraneus by genitalic characters, particularly the tip of the median apophysis with a single, small side branch (none in L. cyrtarachnoides and two in FP-11632). This male may be the same species as FP-11630 or FP-11531, both of which only known from females.

Fauna Portal Records
The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
