Dromopoda is a subclass of the arachnids, including the Opiliones (harvestmen), Scorpions, Pseudoscorpions and Solifugae ("camel spiders"). The latter three are sometimes grouped as Novogenuata. However, morphological analysis showed the Dromopoda to be monophylic only when fossils were not taken into account.[2]
