The 4 segments of the mesosoma are blended together seamlessly and surrounded by a hard shell (exoskeleton) that provides effective protection against stings from bees or bumble bees when in their nests they are parasitizing ... | | |
| | Arachnids, in contrast to insects, have 8 instead of 6 legs. Instead of compound eyes arachnids have 8 simple eyes. The head and chest are one unit (prosoma). The prosoma is followed by the abdomen which is not divided and mostly appears in a bigger size. They are a member of the subphylum Chelicerata having the chelicerae – the appendages which appear before the mouth - which give the group it... | | |
