Scorpion Picture Thread

[JSN]

In the pics the female scorpion looks bigger than the male is this a comman thing in scorpions?:? please bear with me im learning

yes, generally speaking females are more robust and bigger than the males, which tend to look a little bit leaner...

Vincent I dont think a Hottentotta tamulus exists, maybe you mean Mesobuthus tamulus and mis-typed it on the photo?

 

[Scorpfanatic]

mesobuthus tamulus changed to hottentotta tamulus , thats wat vincent said in another thread and that was wat i heard

sorry I didnt knew they changed it, do you have the paper for that or can you direct me to the thread in question? ( I did a search and couldn't find it )

 

[SOAD]

Kovarick hasn't finished the paper yet. I will try to find the post and PM you.

 

[Nikos]

Thanks.
So that means that it is still a Mesobuthus tamulus

 

[Nazgul]

Hi Nikos,

exactly, Kovarik is just mentioning it in 2 or 3 papers, he never did a formal revision so far. I remember having read about it in the Czech Kovarik book and in his supplement to the Catalog.

What instar is that>?

Hey Gigus.
If you are referring to my Pandinus Imperator, I have no idea.
When I bought it from a person in Denmark, he only said it was a "baby".
Has only molted once in my care.
