Pholcus
Pholcus is a large genus of spiders of long-bodied cellar spider and allies in the family Pholcidae.
It includes the cellar spider P. phalangioides, often called the "daddy longlegs". This may cause confusion because the name "daddy longlegs" is also applied to two other unrelated arthropods: the harvestman and the crane fly.
Description
Pholcus, like Pholcidae in general, have extremely long and thin legs. The genus can be distinguished from other pholcid genera by its large size, eight eyes, evenly domed prosoma and cylindrical opisthosoma.Habitat
In the wild, Pholcus live in environments such as caves, under rocks, forest shrubs and deep limestone cracks. Synanthropic species such as P. phalangioides live in and around buildings and other disturbed habitats.Species
