Found this spider on the floor of my room here in Managua, Nicaragua, Central America. It moved fast but I could catch him. My immediate thought was that it was a type of crab spider because the front of him reminded me of a crab, but looking on the internet at crab spiders none of them looked like this guy! So if anyone has any ideas of what he may be that would be much appreciated I would love to know thanks!

Not a spider at all, but an arachnid in the order Amblypygi known as a tailless whip scorpion - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amblypygi
Awesome thank you!
