User's notes

About 4mm. Photos 1+2 are the same individual and 3, 4 and 5 are separate individuals. I'm assuming they are all the same species despite the different patterns.

Can only see 4 pics but first 3 are female M. plumosus and the 4th a penultimate male...

Thanks @Harrisi ! I'm not sure what happened to the 5th photo but I've put it back in now.
