Maratus icarus Otto & Hill 2019 View in CoL

This species, a very close relative of M. cristatus , was named for the Icarus of Greek mythology, based on the appearance of a "winged figure" on the fan. It can be distinguished from M. cristatus by the division of the red anteromedial tract of the fan in that species, as well as by several details of the courtship display.
