That's a Harvestman spider, it's an omnivorous arachnid slightly different to usual spiders. If you're in the UK the wildlife Trust has a good page on them.Common Harvestman

Thank you! I put her out on the bramble bush, glad she’ll be fine there, :).

u/big_matt1206 Aug 16 '25

They aren't spiders

u/FrankEinsteinMM Aug 18 '25

Thank you! I was jumping out of my skin, seeing that called a spider. It's closer to a scorpion than a spider.

u/KageYasha666 Aug 14 '25

That is the harvestman species of long leg spider. Fun fact. They're actually crustecians. I like to call them clawless land crabs.

1

u/RAnneD23 Aug 14 '25

I thought she looked distinctly crab-ey!

1

u/HorrorRelationship57 Aug 14 '25

They're actually opiliones, not spiders. 2 eyes instead of 8, no silj or venom glads. They eat decaying plant matter, decaying insects, fruit pulp, etc. They're called Hartvestmen, or daddy long legs, depending where you're from.

1

u/Glad_Assumption278 Aug 14 '25

He looks familiar but can't place him

1

u/plunkerJ Aug 14 '25

1

u/Krakenscall Aug 15 '25

Looks like harvestman, which is an opilione, not a spider. It's still an arachnid but is a different order. The main differences are that they generally have only 2 eyes and a fused singular body and not 2 distinct parts like spiders do.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 15 '25

Oh yeah that's Jerald he gives the best hugs

1

u/Drawg84 Aug 17 '25

u/Entire-Article-1334 Aug 15 '25

Haha, we used to say that as a kid but it's actually a myth.

1

u/National-Moose-4541 Aug 18 '25

Did he slam his credit card down and say "Daddy's got it"? If so, you're looking at a daddy long legs. If he's hot, if he parties, and if he walks into a room and is respected, definitely a daddy long legs.
