Great shots. Very fine detail.

Great shots. Very fine detail.

I agree. It must have a pretty decent macro setting.

Good pictures. I was hoping to see offspring of the c. sculpts I sent you 2 years ago. LOL. I don't know how you handle scorpions, it would scare me.

Nice pictures. The third one looks like she was having the babies on your hand. I always wanted to get good up-close pictures of the birththing process I just never had the right timing.

Have you ever caught these species in the wild?

My old man used to run a junkyard and tell me about scorpions in Florida he said he could take off a hub cap and find a few. Never got around to taking him up on that as a kid.

 

[xhexdx]

Yeah, I caught the C. hentzi. Probably going to go out again either tonight or tomorrow.

 

[Amoeba]

I should flip over more rocks...Starkey park has got to be full of these.

 

[xhexdx]

You don't find C. hentzi under rocks.

 

[Amoeba]

Semantics...They are bark scorpions so they're found with wood which I'm sure there are plenty of. or in my old man's case in a '58 Buick

Nice pics Joe.
At first glance it looked like she was covered in isopods, but then rationality took over
Thanks for sharing.

Great shots. Loving it especially the C. Gracilis. What's in her mouth though?
