Opiliones
Opiliones (formerly Phalangida) are an order of arachnids commonly known as harvestmen. , over 6,500 species of harvestmen have been discovered worldwide, although the real number of extant species may exceed 10,000. The order Opiliones can be divided into four suborders: CyphophthalmiEupnoiDyspnoi and Laniatores. Well-preserved fossils have been found in the 400-million-year-old Rhynie cherts of Scotland, which look surprisingly modern, indicating that the basic structure of the harvestmen has not changed much since then. Phylogenetic position is disputed: their closest relatives may be the mites (Acari) or the Novogenuata (the ScorpionesPseudoscorpiones and Solifugae).
