====Pedipalps====
Amblypygids have [[raptorial]] [[pedipalp]]s modified for grabbing and retaining prey, much like the forelegs of [[mantis|mantiss]]es.<ref name="IZ">{{cite book |author=Robert D.

Pedipalp anatomy varies strongly with species, with configurations often conforming to a particular style of prey capture. The pedipalps of some genera such as Euphrynicus are extremely long, and free of spines until near the extreme [[Anatomical terms of location|distal]] end of the appendage.<ref name=":1" />
