Artist's Comments

Last Monday I had an opportunity to collect some more materials on arachnids. I was taking photos at the "Spinnen der Welt" exhibition in Naturmuseum Augsburg - a pretty nice collection of living tarantulas and scorpions.

I used blacklight to illuminate this Fattail, hence the blue fluorescence.

I'll soon know the names of those creatures, forgotten to write them down...

I like scorpions. Er, reading about them. The real ones scare me! Is it true that the smaller the pincers, the more potent the venom?

Fat-tailed? Isn't that supposed to be the world's most venomous/most dangerous scorpion? OOH......

The genus AFAIK is Androctonus. Species-wise... australis?
