What kind of bug is this? Mom said it was a scorpion. Toxic.
Hello! This is a scorpion with flagella! Belongs to the subclass of Arachnida; Scorpion has a long whip joint behind it, but there are no thorns and stingers on it. Scorpions are usually very dark. Their first pair of appendages are very long, but they are not used to crawl, but to feel the changes around them and play the role of sensory organs. Scorpions are obviously different from ordinary scorpions. Scorpions don't kill their prey by stinging needles, instead they kill small arthropods by sneak attack. Another feature is that there is a gland at the base of the scorpion's whip joint, which can secrete a strong odor substance, commonly known as smelly gland! Scorpions are not poisonous, but it is best not to go near them, because the smell of smelly glands secreted by scorpions is also difficult to remove, which is their secret weapon! Whips and scorpions generally live in seclusion under the broken stone underground wood!
