Buthacus sp

Orthochirus scrobiculosis negebensis

 

[2nscorpx]

Nice species, but the substrate with the Buthacus sp. is surely not still being used...? The genera lives on very loose sand, and will burrow extensively. It is probably most agile on this substrate as well.

The substrate is a very loose sand, and it does burrow quite a bit.

Interesting species! Are you sure of the validity of the subspecies?

Pretty much yes. For sure they aren't negebensis, but... they could be some undescribed subspecies. Of course I bought as concolor from reliable person. Anyway, gravid females are WC, which allows me to sleep peacefully ; )

Differences from negebensis you could see inter alia on chelae, legs.

Anyway, scorplings molt after 3 days to 2 instar.

Oh, okay, thanks. I'm writing a catalog for species in the hobby and I had to ask.

I'm not some expert on scorpions; ) Always you can described them as "Orthochirus sp."


Btw, they got some interesting colors!
