Hi,

a dwarf and a giant of the genus Euscorpius, both of them are adult females. The coin is a European 1 Cent coin.

1.) Euscorpius alpha
2.) Euscorpius italicus

Greetings
Alex

Interesting pictures Alex :clap:
I saw some E.italicus (near Florence) some years ago, and some specimens (especially adult males) were really enormous indeed.
Hope you will be able to reproduce it
Greetings,
Eric

 

[Ythier]

Btw, one Euro cent coin is about 0,44 inches

 

[G. Carnell]

how the hell do you get all these RANDOM species!!!

Diplo from Belize.. i didnt even know belize existed! (let alone in pet trade)
then u had the very very rare Chaerilus from Philly, and now E.alpha!

JESUS!
Nice work

 

[Nazgul]

Hi,

thanks for the compliment. Actually I got most of the not so common species out of luck. The E. alpha I bought from a guy who collected some specimens during his holidays in the Northern Alps in Italy.

Here´s another pic of the Diplocentrus sp. from Belize.

Greetings
Alex

 

[Ythier]

really strange species... btw, do you know the sex ?

 

[Nazgul]

Hi,

yes, indeed. It definately does not belong to three of the four Diplocentrus sp. described for Belize. Maybe it´s the last remaining one but I wasn´t able to get a key or a description for this species yet. It could also be a species described for one of the neighbour countries.

I have no idea about the sex but I´m leaning towards male because of the elongated pincers.

Greetings
Alex

 

[Fergrim]

It has a little tooth just near the stinger.. what's the function of it?

 

[fusion121]

Its called a subaculear tubercle, I don't think anyone knows if they serve a purpose or are just an evolutionary left-over.

 

[NYbirdEater]

WOW,
are you sure thats a c.gracilis!?

I agree that looks huge for C g Maybe optical illusion?

Also, C gracilis I've seen are pretty much all black in color, although it does look like that one molted in there, maybe they darken??? :?
