Description:

Description: From surveys of the urban and disturbed lower slopes of Maui comes a specimen of M. fullawayi, found on some of the other islands it is not surprising that this species would be found here to. The oridin of this species is a bit murky, but it is thought to be a recent invader of the islands rather than a long-term native.
