Formerly known as tailless whipscorpions, amblypygids or whipspiders can be large and fierce-looking, but they are actually gentle giants of the arachnid world. Timid, often skittish, several species are commonly imported, but there is little reliable information on their husbandry or reproduction.
Orin McMonigle solves this problem with an extensive and detailed look at these fascinating creatures. Filled with photos of species from around the world in various life stages, this is an important volume for the arachnid hobbyist's library.
