Description

Ebrechtella tricuspidata can reach approximately a body length of 5–6 millimetres (0.20–0.24 in) in females, while males are smaller, reaching a body length of 2.5–3.5 millimetres (0.098–0.138 in). The cephalothorax (Prosoma) is light green in females, with sometimes indeterminate reddish markings on the back of the whitish-yellowish abdomen. These reddish markings usually consist of two broad rear-connected bands. Also legs are light green. Males are clearly different-looking (sexual dimorphism). They have light brown cephalothorax with bright median stripe and the first two pairs of legs, while the bottle-shaped abdomen (Opisthosoma) is usually pale green, laterally with dark brown markings.
