Preface
A theory is the more impressive the greater the simplicity of its premises,
the more different kinds of things it relates, and the more extended its area
of applicability. Therefore, the deep impression that classical
thermodynamics made upon me. It is the only physical theory of universal
content which I am convinced will never be overthrown, within the
framework of applicability of its basic concepts.—ALBERT EINSTEIN

CHAPTER XVII
ARACHNIDA EMBOLOBRANCHIATA
(CONTINUED)—PODOGONA—
PHALANGIDEA = OPILIONES—HABITS—
STRUCTURE—CLASSIFICATION
Sub-Order 1. Cyphophthalmi
Sub-Order 2. Mecostethi.[345]
(LANIATORES).
Sternum long and narrow. Dorsal scutum leaving at least the last
three segments free. Openings of odoriferous glands not on
prominences. The fourth pair of legs usually long and powerful.
One terminal claw on each of the first two pairs of legs; two on the
last two pairs.
The Mecostethi are essentially tropical forms, though a few
representatives are found in the caves of Southern Europe. One
family (Phalangodidae) has its headquarters in the hot regions of the
Old World, while the other two (Cosmetidae, Gonyleptidae) are
confined to Central and South America.
Fam. 1. Phalangodidae.—Body piriform or triangular,
broadest behind. Last ventral segment of abdomen much the
largest. Very narrow sternum. Eye-turret near anterior border of
cephalothorax. Chelicerae narrow at base. Pedipalpi long and
strong. Maxillary plates on first pair of legs rudimentary. No
stigmata visible.
The only European forms of this family belong to the genus
Phalangodes. They all avoid the light, and are usually found in caves.
Simon[346] records six species found in France. A North American
species, P. armata, is entirely destitute of eyes.
The family has representatives in Australia and in tropical Africa
and Asia. Mermerus, Epidanus, Maracaudus, and Sitalces are some
of the exotic genera.
The other two families of this Sub-order—Fam. 2, Cosmetidae;
Fam. 3, Gonyleptidae—include a large number of species, some of
considerable size (up to an inch in length of body), found in Central
and South America.
