Now why am I not surprised you're also a Trekkie? And a follow-up question... in the UK, what they refer to as "daddy longlegs" are clearly just cellar spiders or similar. Are actual daddy longlegs only native to the Americas?
Cellar Spiders are *also* referred to as Daddy Longlegs, but it seems the name is more widely accepted as referring to Harvestmen. Not confusing at all 😂
I found this article wildly entertaining actually- thank you!
Thanks so much!

I just Googled that question, they are found everywhere except Antarctica.
Makes sense since they like to eat aphids and I'm guessing there aren't too many of them there
