. Juvenile (80 mm) at the locality Somaliland, Sheikh, Goolis Mts., 0 9°56'23&quot;N 45°11'14.2&quot;E, 1439 m a.s.l. The large photo (14) is an overall view after overturning a smaller boulder. The smallest photo (15) shows a shallow depression under the boulder in which the scorpion was hiding and underwent an ecdysis (the same spot is shown in the large photo by an arrow). Small arrow points to a partial exuvia of this specimen. The lower photo (16) shows the entire juvenile after removal from the hiding place.

The dorsal carinae on the first throught fourth segments terminate in a larger tooth most conspicuous on the fourth segment. The fifth segment bears five carinae and a row of granules on the lateral surfaces, which may form an incomplete carina. All carinae on the fifth metasomal segment bear strong granules. The surface between the carinae is granulate on the fifth segment and smooth on the other segments. The telson is elongate, with aculeus shorter than the vesicle. The surface of the telson is unevenly granulated and bears an incomplete carinae.
