Stenochrus portoricensis is an arachnid species in the family Hubbardiidae, order Schizomida; members of this order are commonly called short-tailed whip scorpions. This species is mostly native to North and Central America. Its parthenogenetic reproductive lifestyle allows it to establish populations in other temperate regions around the world. It can survive successfully across many different areas, particularly favoring habitats including caves, forests, fallen logs, and abandoned termite nests.
