Hi,

1.) Centruroides infamatus with scorplings (the reason why it´s just a few lies between her chelicerae, if you take a closer look)

2.) C. limpidus with scorplings

3.) C. noxius, female

Hi Nikos,

I second what Isaac stated ! I often found Ps. apacheanus after the rains and or where there is a constant moisture content in the soil/leaf debri. Depending on locations of course. This may help with captivity conditions. Nice Serradigitus picture also. Good luck with them vaejovids. :clap:

Cheers.

Excellent specimens, Nikos!

Thank you both Isaac and Chad for the info.
I'm keeping both species relatively humid on peat and at around 28 C day temps during night the temp drops down to 18-20 C.
What do you think?

some more photos.

vaejovis sp. from the US

Odontobuthus odonturus subadult

Liocheles australasiae

I'd be willing to bet that Vaejovis sp. is V. confusus.

Here is the info of where I found my S.gertschi striatus:



The high that day was 35C and at the time that I found them, the sun had set and the temperaturs had dropped to about 27C. The rockfaces were still rather warm to the touch. Soil if you can see it behind the rocks, is rather sandy, but also fairly firm. I'm sure their daytime habitat under the rocks was cooler and more humid than their nighttime habitat on the rockfaces.

While I kept him, i used a very well packed and dried peat and sand combination. I sprayed only every 2-3 days.

the info is appreaciated!
thanks Issac!
