watching the scorp eat yesterday, I noticed in a ddition to the 2 pincers at the end of his “arms”, inside his mouth the appeared to be 2 seperate similar “eaters”, each with 2 pincers.
Got me wondering the dissection/biology of these creatures.

What’s your question?
They’re called chelicerae. They’re feature of arachnids.

What are the 2 pairs of pincers in the mouth, how does the digestive tract work, etc. Sorry it wasn’t clear. I’m looking for some kind of link explaining the anatomy of the scorp. Guess I should have said anatomy to begin with.
