Ask for source if you want, but consider googling it before you do - spiders use silk threads to dispers by wind, it is called ballooning - pseudoscorpians hitch rides on insects - New Zealand mud snail can survive guts of fish (I thought also waterfowl but a quick search did not gave results) - Snails are appearently great at ocean dispersal (And not just by using the feet of waterfowl) - Salties 'surf' the oceans to do dispers - Monkeys once rafted from Africa to South America Thread seemed more interesting in my head |

I've always though so many oceanic animals having larval stages was an interesting way to disperse. |
