Comments & ID Thoughts

I have seen 3 of these things over the last 5 years. I have no idea what this thing is. It looks like a cross between a spider crossed with a scorpion. It also has 10 legs by the looks of it.

Does anyone know what kind of spider this is, or if it’s a spider at all?

It is a ‘Sun Spider’ or ‘Camel Spider’ (but not a spider at all but a relative of spiders). It is part of the Order Solfugidae, which like the spiders (ordr Araneae) and scorpions (Order Scorpiones) are groups within the Arachnids.
