			==Description==
			All ''Bomis'' species are extremely small, with females measuring approximately {{cvt\|3.5\|mm}} long and males only {{cvt\|2.5\|mm}} long. The [[prosoma]] is roughly textured and noticeably convex, while the [[opisthosoma]] is wrinkled and often forms folds on its lateral and anterior surfaces. The legs are short and thick, and the entire body has a sparse covering of very short [[setae]].<ref name=Szymkowiak/>
