Sorry for repeating myself, but here is another one of these to ID. Long-legged Harvestman from my garden in summer...a bit different colour-wise from previous posts though.

Hello, Roger! I think, this is genus Opilio, most probably O. parietinus. But I have never seen this species myself. Here in central Europe it was almost completely displaced by the originally mediterranean O. canestrinii (99,99% I see here, is O. c., very numerous, even these winter days; have only once found O. saxatilis, but that looks different).
