Troglodiplura harrisi is a species of troglomorphic spider in the family Anamidae, found in Western Australia,[1][2] in caves on the Nullarbor Plain.[3]
It was first described in 2020 by Mark Harvey and Michael Rix.[2][3] The species epithet honours Richard Harris, for his contributions to cave diving and his role in the Tham Luang cave rescue of 2018.[3]
The differences between this and other species in the genus has been demonstrated by close examination of fragments.[3] Like other species in the genus, it has no eyes.[3]
