Figure 46 in Five new peacock spiders from eastern Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryini: Maratus Karsch 1878 and Saratus, new genus)

Figure 46. Ventral view of the epigynum of four female Maratus lentus. Note variation in the shape and relative size of the fossae, width of the septum separating the fossae, shape and size of the large posterior spermathecae, and relative position of the sclerotized ducts on either side of each fossa. In (1) and (3) the medial and lateral ducts are at about the same position relative to the midline. In (2) the medial ducts are well behind the lateral ducts, and in (4) the lateral ducts are well behind the medial ducts. Intraspecific variation like this can be greater than interspecific variation within this group, making the detailed structure of the epigynum of little use for identification at the species level.
