Ozophore
Not to be confused with Ozopore.
An ozophore is an elevated cone present in the harvestman ("daddy long-legs") suborder Cyphophthalmi. It carries the openings of the defensive glands, called ozopores,[1] which are present in many harvestmen.
The name is derived from Ancient Greek ozo "smell" and phorein "to bear".
