Sandokanidae is a family of harvestmen within the suborder Laniatores. They were formerly known as Oncopodidae.
Name
The type genus Sandokan' is named after Emilio Salgari's fictional pirate of the same name. The original name of the type genus is a combination of Ancient Greek onkos "swelling" and podos "leg".[1]
Description
Sandokanidae range in body size from about two to almost eleven millimeters. The legs are relatively short and stout, and have few tarsal articles (tarsomeres). A "bridge" connects the prosoma (anterior body) to the opisthosoma (posterior body). Most species are amber colored with some dark brown patterns. A few undescribed Gnomulus species are orange.[1]
Distribution
This family is known from Southeast Asia from Indonesia, almost reaching New Guinea on Waigeo, up north into the Himalayan region.[1]
Relationships
A grade formed by Sandokanidae, Podoctidae, and Phalangodidae is sister to the rest of Grassatores.[1]
