| Snipes, a friend of mine and Lori's from AB, is currently in Panama. She teased a scorpion out of a tree and was wondering what it was . . . I have no clue. Any ideas?  If that photo doesn't work, try this link: https://www.facebook.com/home.php#/photo.php?pid=30459539&id=82301779 I don't know if she made it public. If it still doesn't work, let me know and I'll download and repost it. | |

| It's definitely not a buthid. That leaves:
Chactas exsul
Neochactas delicatus
Opisthacanthus elatus
Thanks for narrowing it down a bit, Connie. Let me do a few image searches and see if I can't confirm something. | |
