About This Item

The Scorpion!

Greetings from Arizona!

This trackable is second in a series of native flora and fauna from the desert of the 48th state. The objective of this series is to bring unique physical objects from our home state to be viewed by people around the world.

This is Centruroides Sculpturatus, the well-known Arizona bark scorpion. They are usually about 2 - 3 inches long and typically tan-yellow to brown; at higher elevations it may be striped. When at rest, the metasoma is held at the side and coiled to where the sting is directed to the base of fourth segment. Occasionally in males it is coiled horizontally over body. Metasomal segments are subequal in length, long and slender in males. The Arizona bark scorpion is very common in rocky areas in the desert and found throughout Arizona.

Things to know about Arizona bark scorpions:

They are nocturnal.
They give birth to their young live, about 25-35 at a time.
They eat crickets, roaches and other insects.
If you find one, there are probably more.
