This arachnid has been classified as a pseudoscorpion. So its has parts are half scorpion and spider. But instead of its venom being located in a scorpion stinger which it doesn't have, it is located in its claws. The arachnid is blind, located in caves of granite and limestone filled caves, and extremely small. It could fit on the tip of your finger. They only use their venom for killing their prey.
