                   Harvestman (Opiliones)




                   Period: Eocene
                   Age: 45 million years

                   Region: Baltic Region, Jantarny, Russia




                   These arthropods that range between 2 and 22 mm
                   (0.079 to 0.9 inches) in size, have eight legs, just li-
                   ke spiders, but unlike them they possess no ve-
                   nom or silk glands. Harvestmen live by imitating
                   spiders. It is clear from the fossil in the picture
                   than they have never undergone any anatomical

                   changes over the last 45 million years.
