| A friend of mine currently staying in Africa sent me this picture explaining that this little scorpion made it half way up his wifes leg before being noticed and removed! Can anyone identify it please? Looking at the thick tail my firt thought was that this is possibly something you reeeeeally don't want in your pants!  | |

There is supposed to be only 1 spp. of Lychas in africa - L. burdoi, and it looks quite different in terms on coloration than the specimen in the pic. Feebo, where exactly in africa was it found? | |
