}}The Monoscutidae are a family of harvestmen with 32 known species that all occur in or near Australia and New Zealand. Species range in body length from two to three millimeters (Monoscutinae) and three to ten mm (Megalopsalidinae). The chelicerae are enormously enlarged in males of the subfamily Megalopsalidinae. Most species are coloured in shades of browns to black. Megalopsalis inconstans is jet black with bright orange patches on the carapace; Acihasta salebrosa is tan and brown with many white and gold specks over the dorsum.[1] The Monoscutidae are closely related to the Neopilionidae, which also occur in the Southern hemisphere.[1] Species- Megalopsalidinae Forster, 1949
