Diagnosis

The colour pattern of Everardia FP-11624 varies slightly from the only described species of the genus, E. picta. Therefore, this species may simply be a colour variation of the latter, for example illustrated in Gross (1976).

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.
