Coupled networks are common in diverse real-world systems and the dynamical properties are crucial for their function and application. This paper focuses on the behaviors of a network consisting of mutually coupled neural groups and time-delayed interactions. These interacting groups can include different sets of nodes and topological architecture, respectively. The local and global stability of the system are analyzed and the stable regions and bifurcation curves in parameter planes are obtained. Different patterns of bifurcated solutions arising from trivial and non-trivial equilibrium points are given, such as the coexistence of non-trivial equilibrium points and periodic responses and multiple coexisting periodic orbits. The bifurcation diagrams are shown and plenty of complex dynamic phenomena are observed, such as multi-period oscillations and multiple coexisting attractors.
