In Costa Rica, adult Opilidia macrocnema obliquans have been found to be active at a temperature range of "20.0-44.9°C and most active at 0800, 1400, and 1500 hours".[2] They have been observed to spend "most of their time on wet sand within one meter of the water line", and can be found hunting small crustaceans, as well as "scavenging omnivorously".[2]
