How can one sex Paravaejovis confusus juveniles?

[ThatDudeChris123]

So, I wish to get some Paravaejovis confusus but I want to be able to tell the gender for future reasons. I heard about looking at those spiky things on their underside but I don't know if that works for every species of scorpion or just Asian forest scorpions and Emperor scorpions like I saw it used on. Any input advice and opinions are welcome, thanks in advance!

Yes you need the view of the pectine. And get the count of the teeth

 

[Lubed Tweezer]

Paravaejovis confusus pectine teeth count: Males = 14-19 Females = 10-14
(According to my book)

That's the problem with overlapping pectine counts. Some species overlap even more. Not the most accurate of ways.

Hm. Yeah that's true. If it has 14 I'm in a bit of a pickle but other than that it should work right?
