| In contrast to spiders the head, chest and abdomen form one unit. Harvestmen have neither spinning glands nor poison glands. Like all arachnids they have 8 legs, which in many species are very long and can reach up to 25 times the actual body length. If the Harvestmen is attacked, it can separate from one leg, this misleads its attacker , encouraging it to continue moving away and later is restored. This leg grows back over the course of time. | | |

Andrena are counted among the bees which collect by their legs, because the pollen - with the aid of their legs - gets located to their leg hairs. On the sides of the propodeum (the first abdominal segment), the female has a "basket" (made from her hairs) used to transport the pollen to the nest. | | |

They do not use theit mouthparts (at the male as genitals) for chewing their food. Four pairs of legs are attached to the prosoma and each leg comprises six to seven segments, which in addition to the hairs on their legs build an important sensor system. | | |
| ...ction of the opisthosoma is the characteristic leaf-shaped marking (folium) , which varies in colour (often in highly-contrasting red tones). The underside is yellow to brown in colour, with one dark and two bright stripes in the middle.
The legs of the autumn spider are yellow to light brown in colour and have indistinct dark spots and rings. The midfoot (metatarsal) of the first leg pair is (on the ventral side) slightly hairy, ( on the ventral side).

...e).
Due to its appearance, the autumn spider can easily can confused with the small autumn spider (Metellina mengei), which is similar in colour. . The species can be told apart by the shape of their genitals, their body size and the hair on the legs of the males.
The autumn spider can be encountered in a wide range of environments, at various altitudes. It prefers semi-open habitats such as forest edges, clearings, box, trees, lawns, gardens, hedgerows, bogs and swamps, where it can be... | | |
| Arachnids, in contrast to insects, have 8 instead of 6 legs. Instead of compound eyes arachnids have 8 simple eyes. The head and chest are one unit (prosoma). The prosoma is followed by the abdomen which is not divided and mostly appears in a bigger size. They are a member of the subphylum Chelicerata havi...
... its name. On the end of the Chelicerata are retractable claws, and in their points are poison glands. The mouthparts (which also are part of the genitals on the male) are to find on the head too. Attached to the prosoma are 4 (six to seven jointed) leg pairs, which (together with the sensitive hairs) build an important sense organ. On the abdomen of the female spiders (Araneae) the genital openings (epigynes) can be found at the bottom. On the underside of the spider’s abdomen is the anus surround... | | |
| | ...re are also dark bristles on the flies’ abdominal segments. The wings are transparent. When the wings are outspread, two very short, parallel veins are visible near the root of the wings. The rear vein is weaker and often only looks like a fold. The legs are yellowish-beige. An identifying characteristic of Meiosimyza rorida is the row of black bristles located on the thighs of the first leg pair. | | |
| | The wing covers (elytra ) are also black but towards the wing tips they turn a lighter, more reddish-brown colour. The inseam of the wings is formed to fine thorns. The legs are long, powerful and black in colour. At the bottom of the 1st and 2nd tarsal joints of the rear leg pair is a groove running horizontally. The tibia and feet (tarsi) are covered with short blackish bristles. The great capricorn beetle can be confused with other longhorn beetles like Cerambyx welensii or Cerambyx miles. | | |
| | The legs of Philodromus aureolus are brown to yellow in colour, can be spread out horizontally and allow the spider to move at speed. The tibia of the first leg pair to the bottom is with two pairs of long, and just outside one pair of short sting-like bristles. In particular, the males are very fast runners. | | |
| | The abdomen (opisthosoma) is narrow, arched and tapers to the rear. The upper side is yellowish brown and has a fine, dark, pattern. In the middle is a bright marking in the shape of an oak leaf, hence their name. The upper leg (femur) is brown in colour, while the lower limbs are ringed with narrow, bright and dark bands. | | |
