Description
Dasylobus argentatus can reach a body length of about 6–7 millimetres (0.24–0.28 in). Females are larger than males. These harvestmen show an irregular reddish brown or dark brown saddle on the median back of the body, usually with a median lighter broad band and whitish edges. Pedipalp's claw is small or absent, the tarsal claw of the pedipalp is present, the patellar apophysis is short or absent, the tarsal claw is rather smooth and the longest legs are II. [5] Males can be distinguished on the basis of the chelicerae and the hairy, concave and enlarged patellae.

gollark: No, I mean to judge who wrote some code, it's important to have a decent working knowledge of that language, right?
gollark: There's also an important meta-level point about how when people *complained* about palaiologos's choice, they did not decide to actually discuss the merits of it with the community and have a productive discussion but just insist they were right and run a nonsensical vote.
gollark: Python is very simple and most people can sort of write it ish.
gollark: But if we allowed *any* language, you'd somewhat lock people out if they did not know *one* of them.
