The harvestman species Phalangomma virginicum was described by Roewer (1949) from Fountain Cave, Virginia, as a member of the family Phalangodidae. Since then, the species has been mentioned only twice, in catalogs (Rambla & Juberthie 1994; Kury 2003), and otherwise has been ignored for 60 years by North American biospeleologists and opilionologists alike.
