So, everyone knows that the Chelicerata sub-phylum includes Scorpions, Spiders and Horseshoe Crabs. But did you know that it also include weird-ass things called Sea Spiders (also known sometimes at Whip Scorpions, and, technically, Pycnogonids)? The picture to the right is from the Canadian Museum of Nature, although I found it at this great Underwater Gallery. Nice horseshoe crab there, too.
More sea spiders in this gallery.
