Costa Rican spider
We recently visited the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica, and came across this spider on the back of a building at the Cerro Escondido eco-lodge (up a rocky path from Montana Grande in the Karen Mogensen Reserve). I’m curious to find out what it is, because it looks like a mix-mash of everything.

Tailless Whipscorpion
Hi Deborah,
This is a harmless Tailless Whipscorpion, a shy nocturnal predator.
