    I wonder if this might be Heterometrus cyaneus? It would be out of range for Heterometrus swammerdami, and the blue tint fits with Heterometrus cyaneus. What do you think? Posted 4 years ago

      Heterometrus swammerdami indeed seems almost exclusively reported from India. Heterometrus cyaneus is a good candidate as maybe Heterometrus longimanus (statistically more often reported). Trouble I have is that if you dig deeper, for each species in the genus you can find photos with the blue tint. So I think need an additional key to be sure. Posted 4 years ago

        Hmm, I can't tell them apart. We may need help with this. Posted 4 years ago
