Scorpions Search Page |
Our databases cover most species of scorpions, particularly those of major medical
importance. We use the most recent taxonomy available to us, therefore if you use an
old scientific name you may not find the species you are looking for. For searches based
on geographic area, always use Country first before selecting Region. Region works only
as an OR selection in our databases. For example, if a scorpion is found only in
Australia, it will appear in the Region "Australia", but if it also occurs in New Guinea,
it will only appear in the Region "Australia + New Guinea + Indonesia". Therefore if you
search for Australian scorpions using only Country "Australia", you will get a complete
list of those in our databases. If you search on Region "Australia" instead, the list
will be less complete, because it will return only those species found exclusively in
Australia. |
