Figure 27 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 27. Display by a female Maratus personatus in response to male courtship display. 1-2, Sequential frames from a video showing a female (at left) raising and turning her opisthosoma from side to side while facing away from a nearby male (arrows). 3-6, Male displaying to a female that has turned away and raised her opisthosoma.
Figure 26 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 26 (continued). Rapid movement of legs III was sometimes asynchronous during this bilateral display (45, 48-50, 53- 56, 59-62, 64).
Figure 26 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 26 (continued). Brief intervals of no movement (e.g., 41-42) alternated with very rapid movement or vibration of the extended legs (e.g., 35, 39, and 44).
Figure 26 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 26. Sequential (1-68, continued on next two pages) video frames (25FPS, exposure 20 msec/frame) showing a male Maratus personatus displaying to a female from one position. Here consecutive frames are arranged in rows. 2, Movement of legs III from a horizontal to a vertical orientation was recorded here in a single frame (estimated duration 20-40 msec). Note the constant movement of legs III from frame to frame, including 'floppy' flexion at the femuro-patellar joint (11, 18). During pauses between rapid leg movement, legs III were generally in one of three positions: near-horizontal, near-vertical, and intermediate (V-shaped position). There was little visible movement of the pedipalps during this sequence, as the pedipalps were held in a lower position to expose the black, glabrous clypeus and chelicerae.
Figure 20 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 20. Bilateral display positions by a male Maratus personatus. As the extended and elevated legs III are waved in a transverse plane, the distal segments (beyond the femur) are often 'flopped' relative to the axis of the leg, as shown here (1, 2). Legs III may also be waved in a near vertical position (4, 5), and brought together above the spider (3, 6). Bilaterally symmetric displays like these are usually seen when the male is in a stationary position facing the female, and not stepping from side to side.
Figure 19 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 19. Developmental stages of four different female Maratus personatus. Note the light (6) and dark (17) colour variation of penultimates (6th instar).
Figure 23 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 23. Sequential (1-32) video frames (25FPS, exposure 20 msec/frame) showing a male Maratus personatus stepping to either side and waving the leading leg LIII while facing a female. 1-3, Bilateral display from a fixed position in front of the female. 4-24, Unilateral display of the leading right leg III while stepping to the right. 25-30, Bilateral display in position. 31- 32, Unilateral display of the leading left leg III while stepping to the left.
Figure 17 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 17. Developmental stages of the holotype male Maratus personatus. 12, The penultimate male (6th instar) is readily identified by its expanded pedipalps, but still has white clypeal setae like those of the female. The carapace of the 3rd instar is about 1 mm wide.
Figure 2. Four different living adult male M. personatus. 3 in Maratus personatus, a masked peacock spider from Cape Riche, Western Australia (Araneae: Salticidae: Euophryinae)
Figure 2. Four different living adult male M. personatus. 3, The scales of this male have rubbed off, exposing the black cuticle of the dorsal opisthosomal plate. 9, The small chelicerae are black and glabrous, separated on either side from a marginal band of white setae.
