Please Note:  These guys are so exceptionally fragile that we cannot guarantee that there won't be some breakage in shipping.   The antenna are generally not repairable but the legs are fairly easy to fix and we do have a video that shows you how to fix an insect.  There are NO RETURNS or GUARANTEE on these due to the fragile nature of this beast that they will not get damaged in shipping!!!  We pack these extra good to try to avoid this problem and are usually successful but again we cannot guarantee.

Species-Acanthophrynus coronatus

Amblypygi is an ancient order of arachnid chelicerate arthropods also known as whip spiders and tailless whip scorpions (not to be confused with whip scorpions and vinegaroons that belong to the related order Thelyphonida). The name "amblypygid" means "blunt rump", a reference to a lack of the flagellum ("tail") that is otherwise seen in whip scorpions. They are harmless to humans.[2][3] Amblypygids possess no silk glands or venomous fangs. They rarely bite if threatened, but can grab fingers with their pedipalps, resulting in thorn-like puncture injuries.

As of 2016, 5 families, 17 genera and around 155 species had been discovered and described. They are found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide; they are mainly found in warm and humid environments and like to stay protected and hidden within leaf litter, caves, or underneath bark. Some species are subterranean; all are nocturnal. Fossilized amblypygids have been found dating back to the Carboniferous period, such as Graeophonus.
