Life style
The males were sampled from forest understory on slopes between 2,200 m and 2,900 m altitude. The female has not been described.[2]
Etymology
The genus name is from Latin lutosus "muddy" (according to the authors "thick"), referring to the thick spine on the patella of the male palp.[2]
The specific name (misspelled "projectis" in the original publication) is Latin for "projected", and refers to the distal arm of the paracymbium with four projections in the male palp.[2]
