northwestern greece. The collection sites are some 40 klm away from each other.

I haven't checked if the light colored one is indeed an e.italicus or an other euscorpius sp.
Ofcourse it could be a subadult but I'm not sure of this either cause it's not very big neither very small....

 

[Ythier]

Thank you Nikos, beautiful specimen !
By the way, if someone is interested I have updated the Euscorpius spp in my "origins" database according to the last paper of Fet in Euscorpius n°17 (+ in the same time Heterometrus, Parabuthus, and some other genus/species...). All should be correct (link)
Greetings,
Eric

eric, c'est bien toi qui m'a dit que le E.terg de corse c'est bien E.tergestinus corsicanus oui?

ton site il rock

 

[Ythier]

Hi George,
I don't speak french, sorry
According to Fet & Gantenbein in Corsica it's E.tergestinus (it was previously E.carpathicus corsicanus if I remember well).

 

[G. Carnell]

oh, so Euscorpius tergestinus doesnt have any subspecies anymore?

there is alot of variation within the species..

[fusion121]

Hi
That looks a lot like a young Babycurus jacksoni, though with young instars its very difficult to tell.

 

[Christoph]

Hi,
I know it looks like B. jacksoni or O. dentatus.Mmmh,I must wait to it's adult.

 

[G. Carnell]
