[edit] Untitled
Until recently I was a resident in Northern Minnesota. While living there, I came across a species of arachnid that I was unfamiliar with. They were similiar in appearance to the tailless whip scorpion. Black in color and about the size of a #2 pencil eraser. According to the information contained under "Uropgygid", this is not possible. Minnesota has never been described as Tropical or Sub-Tropical. I would appreciate any information that anyone might be able to provide. My son is doing a science project for school about these creatures. Thankyou for your attention. Please contact me at alyxpsidney@hotmail.com
[edit] Telson
We should avoid using the term "telson" referring to the flagellum or to the caudal spine, specially with a nonsense link to the telson of Crustacea, which makes part of the tail fan as has nothing to do with this structure in Chelicerata. Vae victis 15:49, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pedipalpida
According to http://bugguide.net/node/view/29752, the order name should be Pedipalpida. I was unable to find it in ITIS but they don't always seem to have everything in there anyway. howcheng {chat} 18:06, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

In particular, what was his head doing in her butt in my Taiwan observation? Jidanni 03:57, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Vinegaroons or vinegarroons?
A single spelling should be settled on.--Wetman (talk) 07:02, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
