Description

A small-medium sized Urodacid scorpion found from Adelaide up the east coast to just north of the Gold Coast, QLD. They are found in short burrows (scrapes) under rocks or occasionally logs. Like most Urodacid scorpions, large individuals are quite defensive and if bothered will mainly pinch with their large, very strong claws and occasionally try to sting. Like all Australian scorpions, they are only mildly venomous. This form is from Mesic Victoria and is a smaller form, about the same size as those in Adelaide. Much smaller than the forms from central NSW.

They prefer moist habitats and a small but fairly deep enclosure, filled 3/4 with slightly moist coco peat and a bark/firmly placed rock hide will be fine.
