A new harvestman. Harvestman Egaenus convexus is a new species for the Podyji National Park. It was found near
Havraniky by entomologiststs from Olomouc during GreenCamp (www.greencamp.cz), a seminar for young
naturalists. This is one of the largest Czech harvestmen (body length 10-13 mm). It is a warm-loving species
occurring in thermophilous forests, dry grasslands and meadows. In the Czech Republic, it is a rare species known up
to now only from Bile Karpaty Mts. (photo by Filip Trnka)
