Dicranopalpus

Dicranopalpus is a genus of harvestmen with twelve known recent species.

Three fossil species have been described, all from Baltic amber, but only D. ramiger is currently considered valid.

The genus name refers to the peculiar form of the palps in at least the first described species, D. gasteinensis (and D. ramosus), derived from di "two", cranium "head", and palpus.
