File talk:Madagascar harvestman opiliones unidentified.jpg

THIS IS NOT OPILIONES! this is a spider of the genus Holocnemus/pholcus. You cant see its thorax because the abdomen is covering it. You can see it standing upside down on a few strings of web very much like spiders do. Please remove it from the opiliones page — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.244.29.186 (talk • contribs) 20:14, 3 January 2014 (UTC)


 * I was wondering this myself. As far as I know, harvestmen do not produce web like spiders do, and so it's odd how the specimen in this image appears to sit in some. Of course, the harvestman could very well be trapped in it, but in my opinion it doesn't seem to be entangled either. As 85.244.29.186 states it overall looks pretty much like a spider. It'd be nice if someone with any expertise on the field could address this, in case it's been a misunderstanding. Sky380 (talk) 21:48, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
