	Soil Bugs - An illustrated guide to New Zealand soil invertebrates
		Laniatores, or short-legged harvestmen, are the most diverse group of harvestmen in New Zealand.
		The short-legged Laniatores are common among damp leaf-litter, under the loose bark of rotting logs on the ground, in moss, and in similar habitats.
		Unlike Laniatores, the long-legged harvestmen (Palpatores) are most diverse in the northern hemisphere (temperate regions of North America, Europe, and Asia), although some species occur in the tropics.

	Opiliones and Phalangida
		Larger in size than the previous sub-order, these arachnids have their pedipalps modified into raptorial appendages which can grasp the prey by folding like a jack-knife; quite often these palps are armed with strong spines.
		Their analysis is based on examination of two nuclear protein-encoding genes from 27 species in seven superfamilies and using Cyphophthalmi as an outgroup.
		Some species extend down to the tropics, but mainly their distribution is in contrast to that of the Laniatores.

	Opiliones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As of 2005, over 6,300 species of Phalangids have been described worldwide.
		The order Opiliones can be divided in four suborders: Cyphophthalmi Simon 1879, Eupnoi Hansen and Sørensen 1904, Dyspnoi Hansen and Sørensen 1904 and Laniatores Thorell, 1876.
		The name "daddy longlegs" can also refer to two other unrelated arthropods: the crane fly (Tipulidae) and the cellar spider (Pholcidae).

	Defenses of Opiliones (Arthropoda: Arachnida)
		When taken in the grasp of a human hand, some Gonyleptidae (Opiliones: Laniatores) have the ability to flex their fourth legs quickly toward the body of the predator to deliver a sharp pinch between the armature of the coxae and femora.
		The superfamily Travunioidea (Opiliones: Laniatores) secretes quinones and phenols that are different than most laniatorids (Ekpa and others 1984).
		The Cyphophthalmi and Laniatores suborders have the ability to further administer their secretions by dabbing their secretions onto the aggressor (Eisner and others 1971,1977).

		Shultz (1990) defined stomothecae as expanded coxal endites that form the wall of the pre-oral chamber in some arachnids (here scorpions and opilionids).
		Shultz (1990) identified segmental furrows on the prosomal carapace as a synapomorphy for the arachnid clade Dromopoda, within which some taxa possess discrete segmental sclerites.
		Within the Opiliones this is only the case of most members of the Eupnoi and Dyspnoi, but not for Cyphophthalmi or Laniatores, which present a scutum.

		As of 2005, over 6,300 species of Phalangids have been described worldwide.
		The order Opiliones can be divided in four suborders: Cyphophthalmi (Simon, 1879), Eupnoi (Hansen and Sørensen, 1904), Dyspnoi (Hansen and Sørensen, 1904) and Laniatores (Thorell, 1876).
		Well-preserved fossils have been found in the 400-million year old Rhynie cherts of Scotland, which looks surpringly modern, indicating that the basic structure of the harvestmen hasn't changed much since then.

		The focus of this study was to untangle the relationships between the four main groups of Opiliones (Cyphophthalmi, Laniatores, Eupnoi, and Dyspnoi), as well as between problematic taxa within those groups.
		The variety of results obtained from all of the different methods of analysis for this data set implies that a plurality of methods does not necessarily converge on one "truth." Instead, it is suggested that philosophical and methodological continuity are more important in defending the results of any phylogenetic analysis.
		The alternative topology that was well supported was (Cyphophthalmi(Eupnoi(Dyspnoi+ Laniatores))), but character congruence was higher when the Palpatores (Eupnoi+Dyspnoi) are a monophyletic group.

		We are nearly positive this is a Harvestman in the Suborder Laniatores.
		Eric Eaton wrote in with this identification: " The Chilean "spider" is actually a tropical harvestman (order Opilones), possibly in the suborder Laniatores, and, even more remotely plausible, in the family Gonyleptidae.

		The results obtained are unstable for the high-level chelicerate relationships (except for Tetrapulmonata and Pedipalpi), and the sister group of the Opiliones is not clearly established.
		Resolution within the Eupnoi, Dyspnoi and Laniatores is also stable to the superfamily level, permitting a new classification system for the Opiliones.

		This is the oldest unequivocal record of arachnid tracheal respiration and indicates that E. sheari was terrestrial.
		An annulate, setose ovipositor in the female suggests that it can be excluded from the clades Dyspnoi and Laniatores, in which the ovipositor lacks such annulations.
		However, the penis shows evidence of two muscles, a feature of uncertain polarity seen in modern Troguloidea (Dyspnoi).
