Arachnophobia

Here are some photos I took recently of some real nasty looking spiders.

The second one is an scorpion impostor (Solfugids, not technically spiders but belong to an order of arachnids known for their speed and their large, biting fangs). I think it’s a camel spider or a sun spider.

I found this site called Spiderzrule that has more info on these guys, and loads more images.

  4. Where did you take the second picture. i don’t think that you can find much of these camel spiders in US as I saw this mentioned in a camel spiders website “camelspider.org”
