The flat rock scorpion is a scorpion that lives on rocky hillsides in southern Africa. It is venomous, but its sting is very mild, and it is sold as an exotic pet. It is special because its flattened body lets it slip into tiny cracks in the rocks.1

It lives in slightly humid rocky places with plenty of cracks and crevices, mostly on rocky outcrops. It stays on one outcrop for its whole life and cannot cross sand for long, as it will die of exposure.1

It was once regarded as the scorpion with the longest recorded body length, reaching up to 20 cm. Heterometrus swammerdami now holds the record at 23 cm.1
