complete encyclopedia book of scorpions?

anyone know of a complete encyclopedia book of scorpion species around the world? I've looked around Google and cannot find 1and I would really like 1

Here is one: http://www.scorpionsworld.com/

The book shadowfoot mentioned is good. It has colour pictures and info. on 350 species. Plus, a large amount of information on biology, anatomy etc. etc. There is also a list of all known species (at the time of publish) and their country(s) of origin at the back.

Other than that, there is The Illustrated Catalogue of Scorpions. Part 1 (Kovarik). It only covers the subfamily Scorpioninae i.e. Pandinus, Heterometrus etc. http://www.factorioforums.com/scorpio/

And that's about it in terms of books that cover a lot of different species from around the world, and include pictures.

Both books are pretty expensve, but are certainly worth their money.

Awesome thanks guys

It's not an encyclopedia but it's a good book!
Scorpions by Manny Rubio

^^ That's the best book available on the captive care of scorpions. It has some great pictures and information on the more commonly kept species.

Yes, it has everything from a venom list to habitat requirements, gorgeous pictures and he keeps it really interesting.
As we say in Holland: Zeker een aanrader.

You can translate that roughly in A recommendation for sure!

I would like to know how to pronounce that and it to my random list of random words I know in other languages.

well I will be ordering it for sure!

(say-kur) - (ain) - (aan-ra-der)
(zeker) - (een) - (aanrader)

That is the most fonetic I can get

I have my earphones on at work and I didn’t realize how loud I was trying to pronounce that. Now all my co-workers are looking at me like I lost my marbles
