Fauna Portal Image No. 803Diagnosis
Miturga parva males differ from the second Western Australian species in the genus on the Fauna Portal, Miturga FP-419, by the lack of an apical serrated edge of the retrolateral tibial apophysis (RTA) of the pedipalp. The epigyne atrium of Miturga parva is much smaller than that of Miturga FP-419.

Fauna Portal Records
The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
