The term "cephalothorax" refers to a combination of the head and thorax that is seen in some arthropods, particularly in some crustaceans and chelicerates (such as spiders and scorpions). This fusion of body segments is a result of the process of tagmatization, which has led to the specialization and integration of various regions of the arthropod body.
