Daddy long legs a true spider?
It depends on exactly what species you are identifying as "daddy long legs".The name daddy long legs can refer to several species or differing classifications. These are:Harvestman - This species is not a true spider although it is classed as Arachnida, as it has eight legs. It is commonly called either "daddy long legs" or "grand daddy long legs" in the USA and is found worldwide, with over 6,400 species. There is a myth about these creatures being the most venomous of spiders, but its jaws are too small to bite, however this is a complete fallacy, as none of these species have venom glands or fangs. They are completely harmless and are not poisonous.Crane fly - These are typically known as daddy long legs in the UK. They are a long legged flying insect that can be found all over the world. There are over 14,000 identified species.Cellar Spider - This is the only true spiderknown by the name "daddy long legs". In fact all members of the family Pholcidae are group with this name. They are found commonly all over the world and again are easily recognised by their long legs. Again the myth says they are the most venomous spider in the world, but this is again untrue for the same reason as above.
What do spiders look like?
Spiders have a head and an abdomen (belly). They have 8 legs and up to 8 eyes. Spiders have tiny hairs and claws on their legs that help them feel when a bug is in their web. The little claws also help to cut the silk when they are weaving their web. Spiders come in many colors, from clear to yellow to green to black. Female spiders are much bigger than male spiders. Females will live for about a year. (Daddy-Long-Legs are not spiders because they don't have a distinct head and a body. They just have one little circle with everything on it, and 8 legs sticking off. True insects, like ants, have three body parts: head, abdomen, and thorax [chest].)
