I will be leaving for Turkey shortly, and will be spending a little over a month there. I will be spending some time on the west coast:
http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=cesme+turkiye&sll=39.262031,33.354492&sspn=2.913206,5.08667&ie=UTF8&ll=39.791655,26.542969&spn=11.557555,20.34668&z=6&iwloc=addr&om=1
i'm aware that this is within the range of mesobuthus gibbosus among other species, having actually caught a pair their over ten years ago.
Admittedly, it was dumb luck, as the pair was found in a shoe closet...
so anyways, i'm wondering if anyone has gone collecting in the area and knows what sorts of micro-environments i should be looking for? time of day? are certain species "in season" ?
thanks!
