New member to the site, but have lurked for some time. Found this guy in the kitchen this morning and thought the green screen would be the place to go. Any ideas what it is?

Knew it was some kind of scorpion but that was allComment

Insect is 1"-1.5" long and the jar is a half pint jar, so maybe 2" across the bottom. Not a regular stinging scorpion, we see plenty of those. This guy is the first one of these I've ever seen.
After looking at google, I agree it's a wind scorpion. Thanks for the help guys!Comment

8 legs make it an arachnid. You have a sun spider, some call it a wind scorpion, it's actually not a spider or scorpion, but a solifugae. It's not venomous, but the bite still hurts.Comment
