Which kind of Harvestman??? - Phalangium opilio - Male
Sherbrooke, Quebec, Quebec, Canada
June 28, 2008
Hello,

Here is a Harvestman photographied at Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada (near Vermont) last June.

Could it be Phanlangium opilio? Or maybe another species???

Can someone help me with this one???

Thank you very much in advance!!!

Michel

Moved from Harvestmen.

Male Phalangium opilio Linnaeus, 1758. Note the cheliceral horns (also, see other images on here of this species).

Great photo, by the way!
