[Scorpion death]

we think its a vaejovis spinigerus the devil scorpion but could it be a vaejovis confusus the yellow ground scorpion we don't think its a hadrurus arizonensis the giant hairy please comment your thoughts

I vote Hoffmannius spinigerus.
I believe confusus has smaller/narrower chela and less developed spinules that are also lighter colored.
H arizonensis doesn't have this much granules on it's carapace.
But don't take my word for it, I'm not very familiar with scorpions from the Americas/New worlds.

Hoffmanius spingerus was changed to Paravaejovis spinigerus some time ago.

Anyway, where was it found and in what habitat? It does look like some sort of vaejovid.

Thanks,
