Field Notes
Description:
I can always find these spider looking arthropods climbing walls. This one was on the exterior wall of my workplace.
Habitat:
Sides of buildings
Notes:
Incorrectly called "Daddy Long Legs" around here. That term is also used for two other unrelated arthropods: the crane fly (Tipulidae) and the cellar spider (Pholcidae). Opiliones is not actually a spider (order Araneae) but is its own order of arthropod closely related to mites, scorpions, pseudoscorpions, and solifugae.
