  I think arachnids that aren’t spiders scare me even more.

    There’s no reason to be afraid of Opiliones. Their mouthparts are the wrong shape and too small to do harm to a human. Also, unlike spiders, there are no known Opiliones with venom. Their chelicerae are for grasping only.

  I came here to say exactly this. Like, I wasn’t perfectly sure, but I was pretty sure this was a harvestment not a spider.

    Same family as ‘Daddy Long Legs’? From my colloquial knowledge they eat -missionaries- mosquitos, so pay them no mind if your tent is crawling with them.

      Yep! “Daddy long legs” is a widely applied colloquial term for harvestman, or opiliones. Though I’m sure some spider species are also called that by some people.

        Given the colloquial meaning of daddy nowadays, that name tickles me greatly.

  isnt a visually distinguishable division between the prosoma (head region) and opisthosoma (back region)

  But… it’s head looks like a black bunny and it’s back looks like a green spider. Is that not a distinguishable division? 🤔
