Pitfall trap design affects the capture efficiency of harvestmen (Opiliones) and millipedes (Diplopoda) [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Pitfall trapping is one of the standard methods used for the capture of ground‐active arthropod groups. Despite being frequently used, the standardization of this method is problematic due to the large range of combinations of the individual parameters ...

Benefits and Costs of Mixed-Species Aggregations in Harvestmen (Arachnida: Opiliones)
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Many animals form aggregations with individuals of the same species (single-species aggregations, SSA). Less frequently, individuals may also aggregate with individuals of other species (mixed-species aggregations, MSA).

Spiders and harvestmen on tree trunks obtained by three sampling methods
Arachnologische Mitteilungen, 2016 We studied spiders and harvestmen on tree trunks using three sampling methods. In 2013, spider and harvestman research was conducted on the trunks of selected species of deciduous trees (linden, oak, maple) in the town of Přerov and a surrounding ...
