Photographs (1-3) and approximate drawings (4-6) of the extended male opisthosomal fan of species in the mungaich group of the genus Maratus. Photographs show fans of living spiders. Drawings are based on descriptions (Waldock 2013) or, in the case of M. karrie, on specimens collected by Darlington that we examined. Waldock described the iridescent scales of these spiders (blue in drawings 4-6) as 'bright blue to rose-gold' under halogen lights, and did not distinguish the appearance of living animals from specimens under alcohol. Our examination of the scales of M. karrie (Figure 14; Hill &amp; Otto 2011), as well as photographs of the M. caeruleus holotype, suggest that the colour of the iridescent background in these drawings is similar to that shown in the photographs. Each scale bar = 1.0 mm. Scale bars associated with each photograph are based on our records. Scale bars associated with each drawing are based on the length of each respective spider in Waldock's (2013) text description and generally do not agree with the scale bars in her figures." httpUri="https://zenodo.org/record/1292578/files/figure.png" pageId="0" pageNumber="1">Figure 1</figureCitation>

Long white setae cover the clypeus, extending over the median and down, above the top of the chelicerae, from both sides. The eye region is covered with grey scales, except for red-brown scale bands at the lateral margins, and a more-or-less distinct 'm' shape comprised of red-brown scales at the center, with its base at the line between the rear margins of the PLE (

Posterior to the orange band is a band that consists of highly iridescent blue-purple scales that may change colour depending on the direction of incident light. When the flaps of this plate are fully extended in display, more varied markings can be seen. These resemble a pair of birds facing each other, with four bright iridescent blue or purple spots surrounded by black, with a crown of red forming the 'head' of each bird. From each 'head', a black 'neck' bounded medially by red-orange scales extends toward the front, an 'upper beak' comprised of a large, oval patch of iridescent dark green scales extends toward the median, and a 'lower beak' of redorange scales extends toward the median. The 'neck' of this bird-like figure is surrounded by iridescent blue-purple scales that are more intensely coloured than those in the centre of the fan.
