I’m out of good photos again so behold the cellar spider (family Pholcidae) who lives above my door.

Her name is Lucretia and she catches a lot of bees and hover flies.

Today the Praetorian Guard went back to there old hunting ground and marched up to the summit of Penyfan in South Wales.

It was a 1hr30min climb to the top.

After stopping to take in the view it was time to head back down.

For the Emperor =v=

Then off to the Rorkes Dripub for a relaxing pint in Brecon town 🍻

OMG BABIIIII!!! Cellar spiders are back! I love him. Sadly, he’s building his web in the drain sink for the washing machine ): he will surely be swallowed by the vortex of dirty water. I don’t know if I should try to relocate him.

Giant fucking Pholcidae on my bathroom ceiling. It seems like every few weeks I realise that no, that last one was not in fact the biggest cellar spider on the planet. Motherfuckers be thriving here.

#2007 - Smeringopus natalensis -

Natal Daddy-Longlegs Spider

Unfortunately, on top of the opening of the Dawesville Cut completely changing the salinity profile around Cooleenup Island, a fair number of people have built holiday homes on the delta, and that means an influx of species not native to the island as well. Such as this Pholcid, originally found in Southern Africa but now fairly common in parts of Australia, at least in bushland near houses although not common in actual houses.

Smeringopus natalensis is currently found in Southern Australia from Adelaide to Perth. However, a very similar species also from Africa, Smeringopus pallidus, is quite common in South-east Queensland as well as the Caribbean, South America, Sri Lanka, China, Laos, Philippines, Indonesia, & Pacific islands. The other 53 species in the genus all appear to have stayed home in Africa.

Cellar spider, Leptopholcus podophthalmus, Pholcidae

Female cellar spiders hold their egg sac in their mouth parts until they hatch - in these photos, the spiderlings are in the process of emerging. Also featuring a very tiny parasitoid Scelionine wasp visible in photos 1-4.

Harvestman (Graecophalangium sp.), juvenile, family Phalangiidae, order Opiliones, Peloponnese, Greece

Harvestmen, also known as Daddy Long Legs, are not spiders, but are in a separate group of arachnids.

They are not venomous, but instead seize and tear apart prey with their chelicerae. (They can eat solid food, unlike spiders, which must liquify their prey).

They only have one body segment, unlike spiders (which have 2), and most have only a single pair of eyes.

There is also a group of spiders, less commonly, called Daddy Long Legs, the Cellar Spiders, family  Pholcidae. Craneflies (Tipuloidea) are also sometimes called Daddy Long Legs.

Well I-

I saw concept art for Grounded's early ideas and there was the idea of adding a "Daddy Long Legs (Spider)" in the game

I never heard of the term "Daddy Long Legs" and then I-

I researched for two hours about Opiliones and Pholcidae 👉👈💕

Also the idea of an epic picture came to my mind

Imagine we had these (fake) spiders in Grounded as neutral bugs, they'd just walk over the gras and they'd be super hard to kill

I also also thought of them as mounts, imagine making a saddle for them and walking around the yard, looking down at all the ants hehe

Hey! Hope your days going well- I was wondering if I could pick your brain about IDing this fellow? Trying to be less scared of spiders & figured knowing who’s living in my bathroom (Upstate NY USA) might help.

Despite spooking me out of my shower- they seem very polite! Maybe cleaning themself off while I peered at them from across the room? The pictures are a little dark- irl they’re a lighter more fawn shade of brown

a cellar spider, Pholcidae, and likely genus Pholcus. they are indeed polite roommates, and quite good at capturing unwelcome flying bugs and occasionally other spiders. they love dark corners of human homes as their name might suggest, but should you ever tire of its company (or don’t like cobwebs as I don’t) they do just fine relocated outdoors. good luck with learning to enjoy spiders—pholcids are a good one to start with since they’re one of the more unnerving in my opinion
