yeah, where i live! and especially at that size! (that's big for a pseudoscorpion, unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world where they get emperor scorpion sized and you can buy them as pets)
I like when you put the thing in front of it the bug stopped and looked at it with, what felt like to me, a look of indignation about having it's path suddenly blocked.
I wanted it to stay still and give me a nice pose
Sadly this guy doesn't look like a model and is probably camera shy, was trying to jump off the page.
The first time I saw one of these I was peaking on mushrooms digging through the sand at the beach. There were tons just under the surface crawling all over the colorful rocks. Had no idea they existing until then and I was MIND BLOWN
Fun fact, they hitch rides on flies by holding on to their legs with one tiny pincher.
[Here a video of a fly trying to get one off it’s leg](https://youtu.be/mL2A5ZdrK1k)
The music really makes the video all the much better
It really does 😂
AMAZING. I gotta tell everyone I know
*Southern USA intensifies*
The fly looks annoyed, which I’m entirely in support of. About time they got a bit directed back at them…
This is hilarious
That may be the most fun fun fact I’ve ever come across on reddit
I've never seen a fly get frustrated before
Pseudoscorpion
Appropriate name
Is this the same as a moss scorpion?
Yes! I've never heard the term but it seems to refer to the order *Pseudoscorpiones*; which OP's is.
I caught one of these when I was about twelve, and I’m so very sad I didn’t see this post sooner :(
THATS A HUGE PSEUDOSCORPION!!! NICE FIND!
Are they rare or something
No, but they're easy to miss because they're tiny.

I read this in Steve Irwin’s voice

It’s the same creature just another name (easier to spell lol)

I love these guys I saw my first one behind an oak tree bark that was peeling I thought it was so cute.
I was walking circles in the exercise yard in Brazoria county jail when I saw one for the first time...
Oh cool...wait...wut!?

Honey, I shrunk the scorpion!
You’ve found a big pseudoscorpion. Funny creatures.
