A Harvestman in the Garden

I think this is Leiobunum rotundum:

Harvestman 170624

Harvestman 170624 Body

It was on the outside wall of our house today. it looks like this species if one compares it with the images here.

It could be good to have comment from someone more knowledgable about these…..

There is a 1979 record from Portree on the NBN.

Female Leiobunum rotundum looks likely. Often on walls too. Could do with more detail to be sure but it’s a fairly diagnostic saddle shape.
