Crawling Rock Spider is what they called it on Fear Factor. Make sure you hold the claws together when you put it in your mouth. Otherwise it might pinch you.

The thing pictured doesn't have the whip, which is why it's called a tail-less whip scorpion. :)

Vinegaroons are another name for the sun spiders.

Tailless whip scorpion
This animal is related to spiders and scorpions, but it's really neither one. It hides in thin rock crevices by day and comes out at night to hunt, aided by its long, sensitive antennae. It has no venom and is harmless to humans.

I'm looking at a desert book on insects, plants and trees. The pic in the book is a dead-on match to the Vinegarone.
Let call it a crab-trantula-scorpion thingy soon to be stuck to my shoe bottom :D
