Peacock Spider 13 (Maratus personatus)

Привет из Мира тропиков! - Завораживающие этнические танцы потрясающе красивых и фантастически ярких пауков! Maratus personatus from Cape Riche near Albany in southwestern Western Australia. You can download its scientific description by clicking on 127.1 in Peckhamia To the best of my knowledge this spider was discovered by David Knowles from Perth. In 2012 David sent me photographs of it, taken 20years or so earlier and accompanied by his common name for it “Pied Bluemask Peacock Salspider“.
