I 100% agree, it seems that almost every heterometrus sp. has been labeled as H. Spinifer. It seems that there are several sellers that are either not knowledgable or too lazy to properly id these scorps and generally just label them Heterometus sp. or (my favorite) Forest scorpion, which could be anything but usually is a Heterometrus or Pandius sp. Unfortunately to me whenever I see anything labeled "forest scorpion" it means they are selling a large black scorpion that they have no clue where it came from or how to id it, so good luck on trying to breed it unless you order a mating pair.I guess so, a lot it could be. cyaneus look like they have longer chela pebbled looking granulation on the chela going by pics I looked at though. Never know what's labeled incorrectly on the internet also. The most mislabeled imo is H. spinifer, I seen so many diff sps. labeled spinifer that it makes a person not even care anymore haha.
