Help me again to ID this one

hey..it's me again...i've got a new scorpion and i ask you for help again to ID this one....here are some pics[img][/img][img][/img][img][/img]

It is a male ,I will let others help with ID.

Where are you located?

in Ica - Perú .... it's a quite desertic place :S more exactly...near Nazca Lines xD

yeah thats a male as to the species im not sure as of yet but ill look into it
i realy like that one its a realy nice looking specimen i want those too haha

hehe yep it's really nice...and really agressive...i'm gonna upload some video in youtube soon so u can see in action...i

yeah it looks like a neat scorpion how big is it ?

no longer than 5 centimeters i guess... can't take the exact length 'cause of its aggressiveness T_T

i think this one is a Urophonius sp. or maybe a brachistosternus sp

maybe someone has more info on them but thats what im thinking

I'm thinking Urophonius sp. as well,it reminds me of the one I had from Patagonia Argentina a few years back.

Do a search on Urophonius sp for more info on them nd to varify especially look on the ScorpionFiles site gallery .
The 2 scorps you have look like adults(probably out looking for mates) so whatever size they are is the max size or close to it . I agree with Wayne/Telow it is difficult and fun to ID scorps.

Here is a list of Peruvian scorpion species http://eycb.pagesperso-orange.fr/scorpions/ASPerou.htm
Urophonius might not occur in Peru so I will look up some on the list for a match.

It is a Brachistosternus sp. http://www.ntnu.no/ub/scorpion-files/b_chilensis2.jpg

wow...yeah...it must be difficult to ID with the correct name some scorps 'cause the Urophonius sp was very similar to the Brachistosternus sp ...
