I've created the article as part of the Muisca people project, and I am not a biologist but this animal is classified as a harvestmen, yet in the article called mite harvestmen. It looks like a mite to me? Any biologist who can help out here? Tisquesusa (talk) 12:15, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The publication says: "Among the least-studied families of mite harvestmen (Opiliones, Cyphophthalmi) is the family Neogoveidae", so "mite harvestmen", not "harvestmen"? link abstract. Tisquesusa (talk) 12:24, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Opiliones as a group are popularly called "harvestmen". The opilionid suborder Cyphophthalmi are called "mite harvestmen". So the species is an opilionid or harvestman, belonging to the subgroup called "mite harvestmen". Think of spiders and, say, goblin spiders: just as goblin spiders are a subgroup of spiders, mite harvestmen are a subgroup of harvestmen. Peter coxhead (talk) 15:08, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
