The Sabaconidae are a family of harvestmen with about 50 known species.
The species range in body length from 1.2 to 5.5 mm. The relatively small chelicerae are sexually dimorphic. In Taracus the chelicerae are strongly elongated. The characteristic, ofter relatively stout pedipalps are often longer than the body.[1]
Distribution
Sabaconidae appear in the Northern hemisphere: Taracus is only found in western North America and eastern Siberia. Sabacon occurs in southwestern Europe plus southern Wales, and temperate Asia, up to Japan, China and the Himalayan region.[1]
Name
The name of the type genus is derived from "Sabacon", an Egyptian king.[1]
