Always interesting to hear of new endemic species being described.
This is an photo of a pseudo-scorpion provided by Zara Environmental that was recently found in a cave in Sequoia National Park and has been identified as a new species of invertebrate. Spiders, centipedes and scorpion-like critters are among the 27 new animal species that biologists have discovered in the dark, damp caves of two Central California national parks, officials announced Tuesday.

That critter isn't new, those guys just spend too much time in the office. They can be found throughout the central sierra.
One of these days someone is going to find trilobites crawling around on a deep ocean floor and sh*t themselves silly. ha ha.
