Figure 34 in Spiders of the mungaich group from Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae: Maratus), with one new species from Cape Arid

Figure 34. Front view of four different Maratus sarahae males as they displayed ('fan dance') to females. Each spider had three irregular longitudinal bands of dark red scales on the optic quadrangle; the carapace was otherwise quite dark. Note the black setae covering the distal tarsus III of each spider, and the prominent fringe of long setae on the underside of tibia III (white and black setae) and metatarsus III (white setae only). Flexion of legs III at the tibio-metatarsal joint (1, arrow) was observed frequently in this species. As with M. mungaich, a series of intermittent and sudden lateral rotations of the extended and elevated fan, to either side, was an important part of this display.
