Tailless Whipscorpion
Dear Michael,
This is a Tailless Whipscorpion, a non-venomous, nocturnal predator that is considered harmless, though it might possibly bite if carelessly handled. In many tropical countries, Tailless Whipscorpions are tolerated indoors because they will prey upon unwanted nocturnal visitors like Cockroaches and Spiders.
