Can anyone ID this Het for me? Thanks

Heterometrus ? it looks Green when attracted to sunlight





sorry. camera pictures

From the blurry pictures it is 100% a heterometrus sp. most probably a spinifer, not a laoticus, not a longimanus, and most likely not a petersii.
Ironically those blurry pictures give a better idea of what it is than alot of clear pictures.

thanks sir. but the person that gave me this het sp. said that this is a h. longi. it is a captive breed. or is he only telling a lie?

He may not be telling a lie, I say it's not a longimanus because the pictures are fuzzy, the last two pictures it does kinda look like a longimanus but the first two look too bulky and not stretched out. But from the pictures it just doesn't look like it's a longimanus to me, looks just too bulky and not enough lanky like a normal one, not going to call the guy a liar as hets are hard to id in general.

It's easier to ID longimanus' when their arms are stretched out instead of curled in, what you really look for is abnormally long arm segments that tend to look longer than they should.

ok sir. I think ill post a clear picture next time.

The palps look too long to be a Spinifer, or a Lao. Most likely a Longimanus, like the guy said.

I borrowed this pic from the net, but it really looks like this..

looks like a Asian Forest Scorpion

I have an Asian Forest Scorpion, but it is black.

That second post pic is a 100% longimanus, if yours looks like that one then it is.
