[neubii18]

okay,so here is another one i just caught.what do you guys think?they were in burrows.i'm in couthern california on the coast it that helps.i got them out by shoving a grass blade in the burrow until they grabbed on hard,then i pulled and they come out with the grass blade.pretty sweet!thanks for looking!

Nice! Uroctonites sp. is my first guess. Very Nice! :clap:


Okay, so maybe not Uroctonites, I don't think there are any in your immediate vicinity. Maybe a Uroctonus Mordax?

 

[H. laoticus]

Wild guess, U. mordax?

(again, hahaha)

 

[neubii18]

i think probably u.mordax.any one else?do u mordax range this far south?

 

[SixShot666]

I think it's a Uroctonus Mordax.
I'm about 85% sure that it a U.Mordax.....I could be wrong so feel free to correct me.

 

[cacoseraph]

should be Anuroctonus species

maybe A. pococki or A. phaiodactyls.

don't remember how to tell them apart

 

[neubii18]

@cacoseroph:so is anuroctonus a commonly seen genus around here?

 

[neubii18]

could it be Anuroctonus phaiodactylus?

 

[cacoseraph]

yeah, super common. not too hard to care for, but not simple to get babies from. i would guess you've got at least one gravid female there, too, btw


idk. i dont' remember how to tell them apart. if you can google species descriptions i can help show you how to use them

Better make sure you get the ID right before you post it for sale
