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 & 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.	Figure 1.

Sequential frames from a video study (23.976fps) of the displaying male holotype Maratus avibus covering a span of ~1s during a bout of rapid vibration that lasted for ~4s. 1-5, From a 'set' or starting position the male tilted its extended fan toward the rear then returned it to the set position with a period of ~0.08s. The extent of the rearward movement of the fan can be estimated by the 'flash' of bright blue that appeared at the top of the fan when it was rotated to the rear (frames 2, 4). 5- 13, In this interval the male continued the cycles of rearward rotation of the opisthosoma, but each rearward movement was accompanied by rapid vibration of legs III, alternately closing and opening the gap between the two legs. The speed of this movement could not be measured, but appears as a blur (frames 6, 8, 10, 12). 13-23, Here cycles alternating the set position with rapid movement of legs III continued, but with little movement of the fan. 23-25, The male again began to move the fan to the rear during each cycle.

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.	Figure 34.

Sequential (1-9), but not consecutive, frames from a video recording of a male (♂#110) Maratus sarahae as it displayed to a female ('fan dance'). In each frame, arrows indicate prior movement that led to each observed position. 1, Pedipalps lowered. 2-3, Pedipalps raised and fan rotated to the (spider's) right. 4, Pedipalps lowered and fan rotated to the left. 5, Left pedipalp lowered, fan rotated to the left, and left leg III rotated to the left. 6, Right pedipalp lowered, fan rotated to the right, and left leg III flexed. 7, Left leg III extended. 8, Pedipalps lowered, fan rotated to the left, and left leg III rotated to the left. 9, Pedipalps lowered, fan rotated to the left, and left leg III rotated to the right. This species typically combined rapid pedipalp, fan, and leg movements while displaying in place as shown here.	Figure 35.

Dorsal and ventral views of a male (♂#5) Maratus sarahae. 1, Dorsal view of living spider. 2, Dorsal view of specimen, in preservative. 3, Ventral view of living spider. 4, Ventral view of specimen in preservative. Note the change of colouration of the normally blue-green iridescent fan scales when submerged in an aqueous solution. The many long white setae that cover the legs of this spider are also much less apparent when preserved. The carapace, with a marginal white band, is mostly dark and glabrous, with some dark brown to red brown scales. The generally grey colour of the cuticle of the living spider also differs from the yellowish colouration of the preserved specimen.	Figure 29.
