Pseudouroctonus williamsi - Trabuco Creek (Holy Jim Canyon)

Eddy and I went hiking out in Holy Jim Canyon along Trabuco Creek in Orange County on Sunday and when we flipped a rock this is what we found. Pseudouroctonus williamsi! Curious little guy but alot of fun.

It doesnt do the boxing thing...::lol::...it just runs like crazy and tries to sting...::lol::. They are so funny. It is about 2" long total. I would like to try and find some more but with all of the rocks we flipped we didnt find anymore.

eh it's funny it took the two of us two flip that thing and Robert was all like "SCORPION!!!MINE!!!" eh...I tried to find more. Even lifting the heaviest rock there(and the small "Robert size" ones too  Rolling Eyes ). Maybe I'll have better luck blacklighting.
