I was stung by an adult C.vitattus during what can be best described as a transference incident during a routine cleaning. Immediate "hot, burning" local pain followed by one of the worst swelling I have ever suffered from a biting/stinging insect. My whole index finger swelled up twice it's size which lasted a week or two. Further hampered with an itching sensation at the site of the sting. This is the most painful envenomation I ever experienced from a scorpion. A wasp and/or velvet ant sting comes to mind. Which I have experience both during my rambunctious younger years in Arizona.
