What species is this?

I was told it was a male pandinus viatoris. Lol

If that's a P. viatoris then i'm a one legged football playing turkey with metal wings and a hankering for cheese covered turtle shells.

....hmm...that was even a lil weird for me...anyway....

A viatoris is like a heterometrus version of a P. exitialis, in short they are orange. Unless that's the darkest orange i've ever seen or there's a extremely dark viatoris morph i've never seen.

Sorry I can't really tell what it is, usually i'm a bit better with this sort of scorp, but it isn't a viatoris.

I know for damn sure its not viatoris Very Happy

Her telson is black, does that give any specific clues or is it too normal?

Its a P. viatoris.. *goes running now* What a Face

No it's not Razz

Subject: Re: What species is this? 8/27/2011, 2:51 am

it is a pandinus though, i think not yet adult

It looks like one that I bought as cavimanus, though the chelae on mine are flatter. Gotta drag her out and post here aswell, as I doubt it's reallu a cavi.

Its not a cavimanus either. Do the pimp have a black telson as a sub adult? I dont think so, but i cant remember exactly.

Subject: Re: What species is this? 8/27/2011, 7:02 am

No they have a white cream one.

Subject: Re: What species is this? 8/27/2011, 9:36 am

Yeah

The guys on arachnoboards seem pretty clueless:S

One guy tells me its either viatoris or cavimanus. Well, then its got to be a pretty dark morph.

Subject: Re: What species is this? 8/27/2011, 9:37 am

to be honest with you both cavimanus as viatoris have RED chelae. This one is completely black?

This might help you out a bit:

from left to right
P. viatoris, P. pallidus, P. smithii

Subject: Re: What species is this? 8/27/2011, 9:49 am

Some one painted that emperors telson with nail polish.

She does look pretty though.

Not always. There are two morphs, light and dark. The DCF has black chelae.

I am fully aware of that Razz

I have all of the pandinus.net pictures saved on my computer Smile

I really want to get to the bottom of this. Looks like an emp but has a black telson. Wtf.
I'm a little colorblind so maybe it's very dark red or brown. It must be a pimp.. Thats lame. If it had been male it would be okay, but female is so easy to get a hold on...
