Hi there,

I found this little guy on the bathroom floor. Can anyone help me identifying it? Spent some time on Google but found nothing.

As far as my limited knowledge in regards to scorpions go I believe that scorpions which generally have thick pincers and thin tails are mildly venomous and the ones with thin pincers and thick tails are highly venomous. I am sure ICM would be able to give you more accurate information.
And God has Created every animal from water, of them are some creeping on their bellies, some walk on two legs, and some on four. God Creates what He wills, for sure God has Power over all things. (Noble Quran 24:45)

Thats not another Uroplectus sp.
Looking at the pedipalps and the last segmant before the stinger, I have no clue what that is?
I do not suspect it to be to dangerous will do some research on that.

thanks
