Personal Scorpion Collection

[Gsc]

Hey everyone, I just finished typing up a list of the scorpions I have in my personal collection...I have others come through the collection that I sell/ trade, but these are ones I'm trying to work with. Alot are CB babies and will require time to raise up and try and get into breeding projects.... Hopefully one day I'll (along with some other GREAT US Scorpion keepers) will make many of these guys a staple of the US Scorpion communtiy/market!

Scorpions:

Centruroides exilicauda Adult Group
Centruroides gracilis 1.1 Adult pair Gravid
Centruroides hentzi Adult Group
Centruroides limbatus 0.0.5 CBB
Centruroides vittatus "Mesic Morph" Adult Group
Centruroides sp. "Honduras" Adult Group
Centruroides sp. "Brazilian" 0.0.3 CBB
Centruroides sp. "Black" (Working on ID) 0.0.8 CBB

Diplocentrus whitei 0.0.1 Adult

Euscorpius flavicaudis 0.0.13 CBB
Euscorpius italicus 1.1 Adult Pair
Euscorpius tergestinus 0.0.8 CBB

Hottentotta polystictus 0.0.8 CBB
Hottentotta trilineatus (possibly) 0.0.8 CBB

Lychas sp. "Philippines" 0.0.2 CBB

Mesobuthus gibbosus 0.0.5 CBB

Parabuthus liosoma 0.1 Gravid
Parabuthus transvallicus 0.1 Gravid

Rhopalurus junceus CBB & Sub adults

Tityus bahiensis Group + CBB
Tityus costatus 0.1 Gravid
Tityus serrulatus 0.2 Gravid
Tityus stigmurus 0.1 Gravid


I gotta say that I'm a Tityus & Euroscorpius guy....rare centruroides are another of my favorite...I really need to work on my groups alittle more. The Mesobuthus & Hottentotta scorp young I have are really starting to win my heart over...so far- extremely hardy...growing pretty quick...and will eat about anything! There are many more species I want... I haven't even gotten into my Androctonus fetish yet-lol!

Androctonus bicolor
Androctonus mauritanicus
Centruroides margaritatus (yellow morph)
Centruroides gracilis
Hottentotta hottentotta
Hottentotta jayakari salei
Hottentotta franzwerneri
Hetrometrus laoticus

Probably a few more I cant think of now......

I miss my Babycurus jacksoni- I should have never sold my group. They remind me of the African version of a Bark scorpion! Love the colors!

 

[parabuthus]

Yeah, as soon as I saw one, I wanted one! Very chuffed to have the species in my collection now (see my picture thread on them). Very beautiful scorps...

Hi,

a short note: The correct genus name is Euscorpius, although Euroscorpius would fit as well, as this genus is mostly occuring in Europe .

Regards
Alex

Really wishing I had more pairs.
oh well
I'm expecting T. serrulatus scorplings this spring, and hopefully another C. gracilis brood as well.
I'm a big fan of New World Buthidae and Vaejovidae and hoping to expand my collection to these familys. I'm working on a trade right now that will do just that as well. Its kinda funny to look back over my collection this year.... 1 January 2005 I started that day without a scorpion... at one point I had nearly 200 scorps, and now i'm back down to less than 100..... and to think i just sent out one of the rarest captive Vaejovids....

 

[Raan_Jodus]

Rhopalurus junceus....ooo im jealous. I think I'm gonna have to swing south of the boarder one day it'll probably be cheaper than going to find some myself in Cuba
