Digging Scorpion

@Johan, in the case of the Opistophthalmus, this is not the case. This family is the exception, where they lie in the middle when it comes to that rule of thumb. This guy can pack a sting.

Hi Gerardo, thank you for the feedback and sorry i havnt put any info down (I was planning on doing that with all my finds at some stage after uploading the bulk of my shots). Their habitat is usually in dry places, commonly found in burrows, under dead trees etc. so they have to be found by actively looking. This guy was surprisingly out in the open on a footpath. The length was approximately 11 cm from head to sting.
