thanks
Hi Kari. Thanks for the help on the scorp. Didn't know you were on bugguide. Still picture taking, but in the midwest now. Appreciate your help on another ID.

Location? Date?
Sorry, you need to provide at least some kind of location where this was found.

 
don't have this time
Hi Eric,
This time I don't have that info. It was a captive critter, and they didn't say where it had been obtained. Hoping that somebody can help visually ID, given that I was told it was desert hairy scorpion. The images seem to match the one that I've listed as possible species.
