  • Ceratolasmatidae

    Ceratolasmatidae is a family of harvestmen (Opiliones) comprising eleven described species across four genera. The family's monophyly is questionable, with three potentially distinct lineages showing affinities to different harvestman families: Ceratolasma and Acuclavella related to Ischyropsalididae, Hesperonemastoma related to Sabaconidae, and Crosbycus possibly warranting separate family status. Body sizes range from less than 1 mm to 6 mm depending on genus.
