Where do tailless whip scorpions live in tropical forests?

Tailless whip scorpions, also called amblypygids, are arachnids found in warm tropical and subtropical regions across the Americas, Africa, Asia, and some Pacific islands. They are commonly found under bark, in caves, under rocks, or in leaf litter where humidity stays high. Despite their frightening appearance, they do not have a tail or a sting. They use extremely long front legs as sensory feelers to navigate and detect prey. Their unusual body plan makes them a favorite subject in arachnid biology.
