A common, mostly black, slender jumper recognised by yellow bands across the rear of the abdomen, found in Queensland and NSW, often under loose bark, especially in eucalypt forests. Females build a flattish, shallow, oval silken retreat. Golden and yellow markings on the upper surface near the spinnerets are brighter on the male than on the female. The male palp has a distinctively curved embolus. This species is the type for the genus, erected by Koch in 1879. The name hariola means gypsy. ♀ 5.5mm ♂ 5mm
