Fiddler ray snouts are translucent. The fiddler rays are also distinguished from other guitarfishes in that the anterior nasal flaps of their nostrils are expanded backwards and fused together into a nasal curtain that reaches the mouth. Fiddler rays feed on bottoms shellfish, crabs, and worms, which they crush between their jaws. The eastern fiddler ray is known to scavenge from fish traps. Like other guitarfishes, fiddler rays are ovoviviparous. The egg capsules of the southern fiddler ray are reported to be golden in colour, containing three embryos each. It gives birth to litters of four to six young per breeding cycle.
Coastal peacock spider Coastal peacock spider Maratus speciosus, sometimes called the coastal peacock spider, is an Australian species of jumping spider (family Salticidae).

Unlike other "Maratus", however, the males of this species have a set of bright orange hairs (setae) along both edges of the opisthosoma which only become visible during
