Calicina sequoia
Calicina sequoia is an armoured harvestman species in the family Phalangodidae, first described by Briggs and Hom in 1966. It was originally placed in the genus Sitalcina before being transferred to Calicina. The species epithet 'sequoia' suggests an association with giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) habitat. Like other phalangodid harvestmen, it possesses a heavily sclerotized body with distinctive armoured plates.
