Young scorpion - Chihuahuanus crassimanus

Young scorpion - Chihuahuanus crassimanus
Private Ranch, Jim Hogg County, Texas, USA
March 20, 2018
Possibly Centruroides vittatus (adults were common).

New county record!
Wow, this is a great record!
This species was originally described from "San Diego, Texas" but attempts to find specimens in that area have been unsuccessful. This record puts it a tiny bit farther away from Rio Grande.

So far it has only been collected from counties that border the Rio Grande (south of Brackettville, that is).

Would you be willing to give me the exact locality via email?
