scorpion id

[Gillian]

Hi all,
For the longest time, I've wanted to id a scorp. On Petbugs site, on the opening screen, towards the bottom left, under caresheets. There are 2 changing pics, showing t's, and what have you. There's a pic of a really cool scorp on there. Its medium brown, and has black tipped claws. Could this be a tri-colored burrowing scorp?
Thanks,
Gillian

Yes you are correct. Looks to be Opistophthalmus Sp.

Larger photo at another angle can be obtained by clicking the button and then the scorpions button, then to Opistophthalmus walberghi button. Both pics are from the same photographer and probably from the same individual scorpion as well.

(Tri-colored hissing)
