Talk:Arachnid
From Academic Kids
My additions are a laywoman's attempt to organize what I'm finding on the web as I fill in basic articles on the arachnids, and to make it searchable and readable for other laymen. Experts, please correct me where I have erred! Catherine
- The only thing I have issues with is that I thought they were all poisonous, every single one. This might be an urban legend though... Tuf-Kat
[edit]
8 legs?
At least mites, daddy longlegs, uropygids and some spiders are not poisonous (that's what I found browsing around). Should it be added that almost all arachnids have 8 legs? The only exception I found is that occassionally the front-most pair is converted to sensory function.

The link nymphs connects to the mythological nymph rather than biological one. I'd fix it, but I don't know how. :/
