Today I got to thinking about the Scorpions I'd Love to get my hands on, but don't have the free money, or access to get right now. So I decided to make thread where we can all post the Scops you would Love to get your hands on!

I'll start

Adult Female Emperor (pandinus imperator)
I have an Adult Male, but as you will see in this list the cost of shipping kills me.


Heterometrus swammerdami
A Large posible the Largest Scorpion on the planet, and from what I've seen on line about as chill as Emperors! Sadly there really hard to find in the States.

Hadrurus pallidus (Hadrurus arizonensis pallidus, Hadrurus arizonensis with pallidus morph, Hadrurus no one seems to agree how to classify this poor scorp)
A beautiful pale scorpion.

Israeli Gold Scorpion (Scorpio maurus)
This is gorgeous cute little guy.

So what Scorpions are you guys after?

tityus trivittatus
uroplectes otjimbinguensis / uroplectes fischeri
uroplectes chubbi
uroplectes flavoviridis
parabuthus villosus

Swammerdami is big bit is similar in size to emporers. It's not a giant within its genus just compared.to other scorpions. Pallidus are com I can wild catch em near me

I'd like to get back into Orthochirus at some point when I have the space and resources to properly set them up. Plus figure out how to actually breed them lol.

I've never heard of Pandinus gambiensis. I looked it up, but I couldn't find any information can you tell us about them?

They look like a beefed up imperator, I dkdon know how big they actually are but they're the in the top 3 biggest in "pandinus" ( the others are imperator and dictator). They have some other morphological differences like granulation and carapace lengths. If I can find a paper detailing them I'll post it, if you'd like.

That would be amazing. I tried to find something, but every page I found just kind said "Yep it's a thing that exists" LoL.

Orthochirus(searched them up and their little fat bodies and tiny sizes combined with their big buggy eyes is something no scorpion keeper can reaist)

P.gambiensis is on CITES list Appendix 2 and very rare. Your chances of ever seeing one listed are very very slim.

I dream of a Scorpion that is about 50 inch long black body with electric blue legs and red claws! That would be really nice!:angelic:
