Renter: Existing cavities. Banaszak & Romasenko (1989), copied by Stanisavljević (2000), state that this species will use existing underground cavities, and that the nest structure and building materials are typical of this genus.
Gogala (2013) reports that the species nests in pre-existing cavities, especially in crevices between stones, where cells are made of scraps of leaves (Gogala 2013). Praz (2017) supports this and adds that the nests are constructed primarily under stones or in existing cavities in the ground.
