The flavus View in CoL group

This group now includes eight species, all endemic to the southwestern corner of Western Australia. Structure of the male pedipalp and the epigynum indicates that these are closely related to other endemic groups from that region, including the linnaei , mungaich , and vespa groups (group 41 in Figure 1). The flavus group is quite diverse and at present serves as a repository for a series of species that differ significantly in appearance and courtship behaviour from species placed in the other southwestern groups.
