You guys got a lot of new species! Are these yours, Finn? Heiko's? Frederic's? Or do you trade between each other?

By the way, T. trivittatus...one of my most desired species! Not to mention R. laticauda and the others...

The new species are from a friend of ours (with exception of Iurus and Opisthacanthus, those are Heiko's) who send the hole lot to Heiko for photographing
Me and Fred have some new species (Mostly Centruroides and *drumroll* Uroplectes schlechteri), but they are not photographed yet, because most are still to young to allow proper pictures. (See stock list)

Nicely made .... i must say very friendly

Hi guys,

since questions about the visual sensitivity of scorpions arose quite frequently in the last weeks, I decided to write a text about the topic at hand: The eyes of the scorpion.
The whole topic will be rounded off by another text about the colour reception and the fluorescence of scorpions, soon to come.

All the best
Finn
