The specimen also lacks the dorsal stridulatory region (as far as I can see from those pictures). The only Parabuthus sp. that lacks this is P. distridor whose range also does not extend to Namibia.there are indeed no Androctonus species in SA, but these are two Parabuthus sp and not all parabuthus have hirsute metasoma's.....
If you could take high detailed shots of the pedipalps, chela and metasoma you might be more lucky with an ID.
