Some pics and ID!!

[Bothrops]

The first pic is of one of my Buthus occitanus (from Spain)
The second one I don´t know exactly what is it, it comes from Argentina
Finally, the third I think it´s a Bothriurus sp. but I don´t know what species.
If you can help... (I know the pics aren´t so good )

WOW, you lucky man..

i think your right about the last genus (based on scorpion files pics)

check Erics site for "scorpions of argentina" and then look each genus up

Theres a key to the scorpions of argentina here that you may find useful:

Anything with a ridge perpendicular to the tail on the last segment of the tail will be a timogenes species.

Wow... that´s a nice web page, thanks!!

I think the second one is a Zabius fuscus (photos here, bottom of the page)

The first pic is of one of my Buthus occitanus (from Spain)

So perhaps B.ibericus..
Cheers,

How many scorps do you won Eric? Looks like a lot, unless they all aren't yours. My collection only consists of 10 species (about 40 scorpions all together).

I still wish we could get A. Mauritanicus here. I want to have all the Androctonus scorps one day, but I think I'll have to settle for what we can get in the U.S. (Bicolor, Australis, Amoreuxi..thats it).

why do you think it's a zabius? I'm interrested in any info of the Zabius species, they are on the top of my wishlist. They're really goodlooking with those chelas and the overall look of the scorpion, just beautiful.

I just think it looks like a young Zabius, but a larger picture would be useful.

I'm interrested in any info of the Zabius species, they are on the top of my wishlist.

I have a little group currently, I hope I will be able to reproduce them...

I don't know exactly, but yes, all the species on my website are, or were mine.
Cheers,

Yes, i hope you're succesful too

Thanks for the comments...
Ythier, I don´t think it´s a Zabius fuscus... first, because of the province that it comes, and second because I have seen a lot of Zabius fuscus and I don´t find it so similar :S Any other guesses? I wanna know at least the genus

 

[Ythier]

Ok, so I don't know... :? but without a bigger photo I don't think you will have a name on that scorpion
