Displaying males of the three species associated with the volans group of the genus Maratus. 1-3, M. elephans from Andersons Flat near Chaffey Dam, NSW. 4-6, Three different M. pardus from Cape Le Grand National Park, WA. 7-9, Three different M. volans from Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, NSW. The position of legs III relative to the fan varies in the three species from (2) one leg in front and one behind in M. elephans, to (5) both legs in front in M. pardus, to (8) both legs behind in M. volans. All three species are vividly and distinctly coloured.	Figure 15.

Views of the living female paratype for Maratus elephans. These closely resemble the females of M. volans, but unlike that species lack spots of dark pigment on the legs and flecks of dark pigment visible through the sides of the carapace. Like female M. volans, the appearance of female M. elephans may be associated with cryptic mimicry of leaf scars (Otto & Hill 2014, Figure 20), suggesting a similar microhabitat preference.	Figure 5.
