I have read and heard that some species of scorpion are located here in Louisiana. Does anyone know how far south they reside. And what species are able to be found.
I live in Springfield, which is between New Orleans and Baton Rouge in southeast Louisiana. I found a scorpion today under a pot. I think the species is Centruroides Vittatus. They commonly dwell in southwest Louisiana, so I find it very odd that I found one here. I'm going to buy a small plastic aquarium and keep it.I have read and heard that some species of scorpion are located here in Louisiana. Does anyone know how far south they reside.

possibly mistook a vinegarone for one?- LOLI have had one person tell me their son found a "big black scorpion" underneath a rock somewhere this far south (i forget where) but I have little faith in it as A) there was no proof and B) we don't have "big black scorpions" here.
