A HISTORY OF SUSSEX 



CHERNETES 



CHELIFERID^ 



Out of twenty species of false scorpions hitherto recorded as indigenous to Great Britain 

 only two have been taken in this county. The various species can usually be found amongst 

 moss and dead leaves, or beneath stones and the bark of trees. They are unmistakable on 

 account of their possession of a pair of forcipated palpi, like those of the true scorpion.
