Well, there are a FEW present.

The Puerto Rican Racer is supposed to be mildly venomous.

Also, there is a giant centipede (Scolopendra species) that is venomous; used to be common in the sugar cane fields back in those days. Capable of a nasty stinging bite, I am told. These guys get big - up to 12 inches long!
