About Indian Scorpions eGuide

Scorpions are an integral part of most landscapes being largely represented in dry habitats to wet rain forests but being notably absent from the poles. These are some of the most well studied arachnids largely due to their medical importance and also perhaps their role as biological pest controllers.

India is home to over 120 species in twenty five genera under six families and the number of species increases each year with more exploration across the country. In an attempt to popularize scorpions among naturalist and researcher, we here present a pictorial app on common Indian scorpions.

The app presents details of thirty eight species under fifteen genera from across India. It is hoped that this app is useful not only to naturalists but in near future also to people seeking help in identification of scorpions for venom research in the country.

The high quality colour images will certainly be of help to interested people to identify scorpions. The app will be updated with more species in the near future to make it more useful along with interactive keys.
