Hey guys!

I want to show you some of my scorpions from the philippines.

My stocklist:
Chaerilus celebensis Philip., Negros Oriental
Chaerilus celebensis Philip., Cagayan de oro
Isometrus maculatus Philip., Quezon Province
Isometrus maculatus Philip.,
Lychas mucronatus Philip.,
Liocheles waigiensis Philip., Marinduque, Boac

All species are seperated and I try to breed only scorpions of one loction.


Some pictures:

Lychas mucronatus, very social! 10 speciemen, i2-i3, for 4 weeks on shippment without one case ofcanibalism!



Isometrus maculatus, my first speciemen came from Quezon Province. The first joungs are i5 now and sub/adult. I think they are very social, because I keep 2.3 in i5-i6 together without canibalism.


Some more Isometrus maculatus, I trie to get out the exact location, are partially very orange





Another nice species I don't saw here in Europe till now is Liocheles waigiensis. I only saw L. australisiae and keep them too, but my speciemen of this species come from Indonesia
L. waigiensis are very big and use only their claws for hunting. I got 1.1 adult and I think the others are subadults.
Subadult:


female:


male:


adult male:

with big prey :!:


adult female, poss. gravid :?:







so, thats all, I will try to keep and breed all this species.

Lychas infuscatus aka Filipino bark...Mabuhay...
That's the second time you post a species name, without explaining why you think it is that species. Lychas infuscatus is not even depicted in this thread. ;)

Great pics! The Lychas genus are definately high on the to get list but I must say the L waigensis particularily caught my eye. They are very neat and primitive looking. Might have to add those as well! Haha

don't mind him, he is pathetic.

Looking how you admire thy specimens makes me a very sad panda. In its country of origin, it is always overlooked, if not, mocked by the very hobbyist who patronize "foreign" specimens.

are u sure i posted twice this specie?? if you want to know this specie just search coz i just saw this specie here in the phillipines gets mo brad?hahaha
Hi,

you where twice in a thread, just shouting a scorpion species name, without any explanation. At least in the case of the Lychas species, you where wrong. Personally, just shouting a name, without explanation why you think it is that species, is kind of worthless.

Stop calling me brad, orI will cast a voodoo spell on you......
