Figure 3 in Courtship display of the peacock spider Maratus aquilus (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryini)

Figure 3. Detailed views of the fan of living adult male Maratus aquilus. 1-3, 5, Elevated fan with flaps extended during display. The iridescent green colour of the posterodorsal ornament of the fan is scarcely visible in this orthogonal view. 4, 6-9, In this perspective the folded fan resembles the head of an eagle (aquilus). 10, Lateral view of opisthosoma showing folded fan of a mating male. 11, View of the iridescent green ornament (inset at upper left) through legs III as seen by a female attending to the close fan dance of a male. With the posterior fan only partly elevated, the fan presents at an angle that appears to increase the intensity of light reflected from this ornament. To the rear, or just above the iridescent green scales of this ornament, lies a small patch of brighter, light blue iridescent scales. In this position the fan is also waved and moved up and down through a low amplitude. 12-14, Ventral views showing flexible articulation of the pedicel and the opisthosoma.
