Neriene emphana is widespread throughout Europe, reaching its northern limits in Sweden and southern Finland, and has been found across northern Asia to China, Korea and Japan. It is apparently restricted to woodland, both coniferous and deciduous, and is found on bushes and the lower branches of trees, often in dark places and sometimes associated with beech. The sheet webs are flat or slightly domed, but never as strongly as in N. radiata, and are built well above ground level. Adults are found from June to August. Cephalothorax of the female is grey-yellow, of the male - yellow-red. The female's abdomen is bulgy, white with a black longitudinal stripe in the middle and black transverse stripes in the rear part; on each side of the rear part of the abdomen there are four black transverse stripes. The male's abdomen is much slimmer, yellowish with four dark transverse stripes at the rear. Legs light, from pale yellow to brownish, without stripes.
