Liocheles species of some sort

 

[Michiel]

Indeed genus Liocheles. It is either an adult L.australasiae, if it is that size, but judging from the habitatus I am not totally sure. the other option is a juvenile L.waigiensis...

Can you post pic showing the the dorsal side (view from above)?

either L. australasiae (adult) or L. waigensis (juvie)

Is that scorpion 1 inch, measured from the edge of the carapace (head) to the tip of the aculeus (stinger)? In that case it must be L.australasiae, because L.waigiensis is much larger, almost double that size....
