Leiurus quinquestriatus

Wow, looks almost alien in a way. The little nodules on the exoskeleton are a fascinating feature. I wonder what purpose they serve? If I eventually get into scorpions, I will definitely consider getting one of these. Once I have some experience keeping more beginner friendly species, that is. I understand the venom of Leiurus spp. is not to be taken lightly.
