pseudoscorpiones
Pseudoscorpiones, also known as false scorpions or book scorpions, is an order of arachnids that resemble small scorpions but do not have a stinger-tipped tail. They range from 2 to 8 mm in size and are usually beneficial to humans as they prey on clothes moth larvae, carpet beetle larvae, booklice, ants, mites, and small flies. They are mostly found in leaf litter and soil, but some species are adapted to live in caves, on trees, and even within the house. There are over 3,000 identified species of pseudoscorpions.
