Only male specimens have been described, measuring 1.4 to 1.5 mm in total body length . The species was originally described from Rovno amber in Ukraine and also appears in Baltic, Bitterfeld, and Scandinavian amber deposits . Since this species went extinct millions of years ago, you cannot keep it in captivity. No living specimens or colonies exist.
