The mungaich View in CoL group

This large group, endemic to the southern part of Western Australia, includes species with very wide, brightly-coloured fans covered with a pattern of bright red scales on a background of iridescent scales. All males in the group extend legs III, but several ( M. avibus , M. bubo , M. caeruleus , and M. madelineae ) closely bracket the fan with legs III as they display.
