Maratus electricus Otto & Hill 2017b View in CoL

This striking species is known from a single locality near Lake Muir. The species name electricus is based on the resemblance of parallel lines of red pigmented scales on the opisthosoma to electrical wiring on a circuit board. As in M. linnaei , bright white setae of the pedipalps align with tracts of white setae between the AME and ALE as well as lines of white setae that traverse the eye region.
