"Zygiella atrica", like other "Zygiella" species, builds an orb web with two missing sectors, and a signalling thread in the center of those, leading to its hideout, whereas young spiders build a complete web.

Unlike "Z. x-notata", this spider is found away from houses, on bushes and rocky sites away from human habitation. It is also more brown.
