GREETING CARD:
“Bee Creek Cave harvestman (Texella reddelli)" is a federally endangered arachnid and part of the Threatened Texas series and is an original artwork by me, Juliet Whitsett. To create this image I sampled colors from images of threatened species and created original art inspired by the unique limited palette.
SPECIES INFORMATION PROVIDED BY : Colin Strickland, Biologist
"The Bee Creek Cave harvestman is a federally endangered karst, or cave invertebrate. They are related to daddy longlegs (Opiliones), but are troglobitic, meaning they only live underground. Due to limited nutrients in the subterranean environment, they often appear dormant while hiding under rocks. Little is known about the behavior or diet of these reclusive animals. They are found only in a few caves in Travis County south of the Colorado River and are endangered due to rapid urbanization in this region. Protecting the mixed Ashe Juniper and oak woodlands above ground helps ensure nutrients make their way down into the caves and contaminants stay out of their sensitive underground habitats."
