Pictures: The Dominican Guabá

The Dominican Guabá
I saw one of these in a cave up by San Cristobal, took a picture of it, and wondered for years what the heck it was.  The cave guide told us it was poisonuos.  Not so.  It is a Tailless Whip Scorpion and is harmless to humans, although quite scary looking.
