M. cristatus males come in two colours, brown as shown here and white. The pattern and colour of setae on the fan resembles the Union Jack, and the eight tufts of long white setae that extend behind the posterior margin of the fan make it easy to recognize this species. The name cristatus means "tufted" and this is also the species name of the Peacock ( Pavo cristatus ).
