Species Vaejovis carolinianus - Southern Unstriped Scorpion

"The only scorpion native to much of the Appalachian states: Kentucky, West Virginia (S), Virginia (SW), North and South Carolina (W), Georgia (North, not coastal or southern, where Centruroides hentzi is found), Alabama (N), Mississippi (NE), Louisiana (tiny, disjunct, area NE of Baton Rouge near MS border), Tennessee (E 2/3)." - Kari J McWest

"Occasionally enters homes and is often found under rocks and other surface objects. This species is not of medical importance."

"Note: Old Texas records of Vaejovis carolinianus are referable to Pseudouroctonus reddelli."
