Daddy Longlegs – Field Station
By A Mystery Man Writer
Description
Daddy longlegs or Harvestman are not true spiders. They belong in the Order Opiliones, not with the true spiders in the Order Araneae. Harvestmen may congregate in large numbers in fall, which is thought to be a warming strategy. They are found in fields and meadows, both nocturnally and on bright days. Up to 40 pale green eggs are laid underground in fall. Head-of-a-pin-sized young hatch in spring, live one summer, mate, lay eggs and die. They produce neither web nor nest.
