  • Burrowing scorpion = swollen-stinger scorpion.
    The latter specifically refers to Anuroctonus species while the former encompasses a wider range of genera such as Opistophthalmus.
    Looking for swollen-stinger scorpions (Anuroctonus) and giant Anza Borrego hairy scorpions (Hadrurus anzaborrego) in the Mojave Desert at night.
    As it turns out, it was also the Stenomorpha beetles' mating period. I later stumbled across a pair.

    I love how you can get pinch,sting or bite and you literally have reaction like: "oh no, anyway."

    It looks like a cross between a spadix and an Arizonensis. The tip of the claws are spadix, and the back is more black. But they are larger and hairier like the Arizonensis

      From what I understand, though I could be wrong, their are a couple different groups, I guess, of hadrurus in America. There is arizonensis, then everything else. Arizonensis has more yellow limbs and tail and are more commonly brown on the top. Then there's everything else (spadix, AnzaBorrego, obscurus) which have a paler cream color for limbs and tail (including the red tips of their claws) and more commonly have black tops.

    I think I might have found an anzaborrego that I misidentified a few years ago.

    I found a very pale Hadrurus in Anza Borrego. Can you help me ID? Looked gravid more pale than H. Pallidus, not sure if there is a light morph of H. Anza-Borrego.

    Awesome video, how’s the sting from the swollen stinger scorpion (the one you were calling burrowing scorpion) I think they’re the same thing? Thanks!

      Not much worse than a bee sting. Only ever been stung once by Anuroctonus though.

      ​@@GeneralApathy The scorpions of the genus Hadrurus are the noble arachnids in the United States, and they can be useful in pest control, they can really be noble killers of pests
