  1. Howdy,

    This is not P.opilio but Opilio canestrinii - possibly still subadult.

    Please remove/add tags accordingly, so it may be displayed in the correct galleries :o)

''Opilio canestrinii'' is a species of harvestman. ''O. canestrinii'' probably originates from Italy, but has invaded central Europe since the late 1970 and has since almost everywhere replaced the similar ''O. parietinus''. It is most often found on house walls.
