Hadogenes troglodytes
or
Hadogenes Paucidens

So they've created a new name for it

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 3/30/2009, 12:24 pm

Lots of scorpions have names made u[]D for them

Moved to scorpion ID . . . seemed more appropriate.

Since they said "pseudo" hadogenes, I'm guessing it's a different genus with similar characteristics.

i think someone on here had some pseudo hadogenes, i think they may actualy be Iomachus politus but am not sure

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 3/30/2009, 10:13 pm

I was thinking it was another genus. Or it could be a different type of Hadogenes other than paucidens or tylogyte.

I think this is Iomachus politus, there was a thread about it a wee while ago..

Judging by the size of the mom with babies on her beside a coin. I doubt it can ever be a Troglodytes.

Different genus with similar characteristics, like Mike said.. do they have Liocheles sp. from where these were found??

I think they may be another genus with similar characteristics, cause someone on Bug Nation (doubt any of you ever heard of it its linked to Tarantula Barn) and they look pretty much the same as Hadogenes but theyre just really wee

The ones you see in the picture in the link is Iomachus sp. there is no such thing as "psudo" Hadogenes

please read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudo

They proably named them Pseudo because they chouldnt figgur out what sp it is.. "They look like Hadogenes, so false Hadogenes but lets make it sound latin/greek so lets use the word Pseudo Hadogenes "

Kejser that makes alot of sense! Then why dont they name it by its real name? Duh!?

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 4/6/2009, 3:03 pm

Because some shop keepers are not in they right minds.. Very Happy

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 4/6/2009, 4:05 pm

they are iomachus politus. he got them from tanzania.

he keeps saying that they are a newly discovered scorpion... which i believed and felt really chuffed when i posted them on the forum last year... then felt a total plonker afterwards when I found out they were not rare at all.

me n connie compared pictures and if it is different in any way... we cant see what makes it a rare scorpion. It makes me cringe everytime i go onto his site and see the pseudo hadogenes!

I still have my female left, hopefully pregnant. but I wouldn't mind getting some more of them

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 4/10/2009, 3:36 am

I still have my female. Going to get a mate for her when I can

But yes, still an Iomachus Politus. I have no idea why these places are giving it a new made up name, all they need to do is go to a scorpion website and ask for an ID

Subject: Re: What is this?? Pseudo Hadogenes 4/13/2009, 6:43 am

it was a damn shame chuffing mites got my male!

I have noticed lately that wholesalers are giving scorpions new names or saying stuff is rare / non-DWA just to get them shifted... dodgy people!
