Busting spider myths - It might sound convincing but this common “wisdom” is a total myth. Daddy Long-legs, like most spiders, have a venom which is toxic to their prey (usually insects and spiders) but is not dangerous to people. A study in 2019 showed that while the venom is full of interesting components, the “effects of bites on humans and other mammals are inconsequential”. Not only is the venom not dangerous to us, but it’s also not true they can’t bite. Image: Daddy Long-legs (Pholcus sp., possibly jinwum) living in a group under a rocky overhang.

Busting spider myths - Their petite fangs might seem like they pose no threat to us, but the bigger species can definitely break the skin! That doesn’t mean they will - Daddy Long-legs are not defensive and keep to themselves, but if they become trapped they are capable of giving a bit of a nip. This ability was famously demonstrated when Mythbusters host Adam Savage allowed himself to be bitten on camera, reporting only a “little tiny burning” which disappeared almost immediately.

Busting spider myths - The Daddy Long-legs (Pholcus phalangioides) and other members of the family Pholcidae are often said to be dangerously venomous. It’s said, in fact, that they’re the most “poisonous” spiders of all. Fortunately, it’s also said that they can’t bite us because their fangs are too small to break our skin. Phew!

The opening is difficult to spot - just a slit in the sand high enough for the scorpion to move in and out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e99306d797cc07533d50cd9/0ad99dcf-4e5c-4603-b8b4-a4b8d514d895/Darwin-Giant-Scorpion-Urodacus-excellens-UV-Caitlin-Henderson.jpg She's Got Legs Articles - Australia’s largest scorpion | Giant Darwin Scorpion (Urodacus excellens) Like all scorpions, Giant Darwin Scorpions fluoresce under ultraviolet light. It is thought that the body’s sensitivity to UV light helps the scorpion to detect and avoid it, allowing it to move away from bright illumination by the moon and find places to hide. This unnatural glow makes them easier to spot at night when they might be otherwise nearly invisible amongst the leaf litter. While stings of large species are painful, no Australian scorpion species are known to be dangerous to humans. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e99306d797cc07533d50cd9/bc57bd1d-0f4b-427d-a405-3486efc4b4c3/Darwin-Giant-Scorpion-Urodacus-excellens-Australia-Caitlin-Henderson.jpg She's Got Legs Articles - Australia’s largest scorpion | Giant Darwin Scorpion (Urodacus excellens) - The officially published measurement tells us that these scorpions grow larger than 11.5cm, but various reports of larger males suggest they can grow beyond 12cm. Males are longer than females and more commonly seen. Once they mature, they emerge from their burrows to seek females. They can be spotted on the move with the help of a UV torch. https://www.gotlegsmacro.com/articles/the-arachnids-that-walk-on-stilts-harvestmen-opiliones monthly 0.5 2023-07-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e99306d797cc07533d50cd9/1648637080311-AY0APETADRTVJ1XU45JA/Heteronuncia+robusta+Clohesy+River+wide+compare.jpg She's Got Legs Articles - Harvestmen (Opiliones): The arachnids that walk on stilts - Robust Harvestman (Heteronuncia robusta).

They begin by holding the leaves together using their mandibles and legs, acting like “stitches” until they glue the nest together with silk. The silk is produced by the Green Ant larvae. Workers carry these larvae to the worksite in their mandibles, using the helpless larvae to “paint” the silk glue between two leaves. https://www.gotlegsmacro.com/articles/entomopathogenic-fungi-the-silent-jungle-killers monthly 0.5 2023-07-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e99306d797cc07533d50cd9/1647488719283-6LX4O75S89W3M7EXDDDX/Ant+wearing+cordyceps+Speewah01+copy.jpg She's Got Legs Articles - Entomopathogenic Fungi: The inspiration behind the Last of Us - Ophiocordyceps unilateralis group on Rattle Ant (Polyrhachis sp.).
