General Characteristics: Body divided into two parts (cephalothorax and abdomen), with 8 walking legs. Possesses a pair of large chelicerae (used for predation and defense) and a stinger at the end of the tail (its venom is weakly toxic to humans, causing only mild local redness and swelling). Habits Adult: Nocturnal, prefers cool, humid habitats (e.g., tropical rainforests); feeds on small insects (e.g., crickets, cockroaches); usually solitary except during mating season.

The entire life cycle is approximately 2-3 years.
