Tidarren cuneolatum is a species of spider in the family Theridiidae.[1] It is found across Africa, Cape Verde, Canary Islands, Spain, and Yemen[1]
Habitat and ecology
Tidarren cuneolatum behaves hemi-synanthropically. Its preferred web sites are mainly on stone walls and rock crevices, as well as house walls and window frames, and the stems of large, rough-barked trees. This may explain the synanthropic aspect of this species.[2]
In South Africa, the species has been sampled at altitudes ranging from 31 to 1809 m.[2]
