Any idea on the gender of my olive Keeled flatrock hasn't molted in 5 years so I assume she's full grown
Female....due to the tail length. Males of the flat rocks have way elongated tails.

Hadrurus arizonensis was thirsty haha
Wish I could have gotten a better pic but didn't want to use too bright of a light...

Photographed under UV light in the desert on the Arabian Peninsula. If someone could identify it, I would appreciate that. I'm not a scorpion person, just curious. Initially, I thought deathstalker because I've heard those are around here, but the pincers look too fat and the body too narrow.

Bought this as an emperor scorpion. I know there are a lot of misidentifacations with this species so could anyone confirm that? I remember something about the stinger colour but can't remember exactly. Also if you could let me know the sex? Thanks for any input!

I got an adult female Asian forest scorpion at an expo yesterday. Does anyone know how to differentiate the species of Heterometrus? I heard it had something to do with the claw shape, so the second picture is of her claw.
