Can a scorpion have a pigment disorder like albinism or melanism? With Google, I haven't even been able to find out if they have melanin. I am asking purely out of curiosity.
Wow that was a cool article. Thanks!To directly answer your question, there has been recorded cases of albino scorpions. They don't look very different to the naked eye, since melanin apparently exists (or is visible) in a couple body parts. Here's a paper, if you want to read up on it more.
