Whip spiders are small to large arachnids with large spiny pedipalps (definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedipalp), a pair of two-segmented chelicerae (definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelicerae), four pairs of legs, of which the first pair are greatly elongated and whip-like, and an ovate abdomen which lacks a terminal flagellum. • They are considered to be most similar to whip scorpions (Uropygi - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uropygi) and schizomids (Schizomida - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizomida) as all three orders share numerous features in common, such as the antennae-like first pair of legs. • Whip spiders occur in most tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. This particular specimen was collected from the north-west of Western Australia in the Kimberley region – which was a very unexpected discovery.
