Forsteropsalis Photophaga
''Forsteropsalis photophaga'', also known as the glow-worm hunter, is a species of long-legged harvestman in the family Neopilionidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand, found in North Island caves in the vicinity of Waitomo. The name ''"photophaga''" comes from their habit of feeding on the luminescent larvae, pupae, and adults of the New Zealand glow-worm ''Arachnocampa luminosa''. Taxonomy Both Aola Richards and Meyer-Rochow and Liddle had previously recorded a species of harvestman in caves at Waitomo feeding on glow-worms which they identified as ''Megalopsalis tumida'' (now considered a synonym of ''Forsteropsalis fabulosa''). Further examination of specimens from the cave revealed this harvestman was in fact two new species of ''Forsteropsalis''. These were named and described in 2014 by Chris Taylor and Anna Probert as ''Forsteropsalis bona'' and ''F''. ''photophaga''. ''Forsteropsalis photophaga'' was so named for its habit of feeding on the luminescent glow-w ...
