Guide

Scorpions in the animal atlas

Scorpion profiles on Reptiles.ge follow the same editorial rule as the other group pages: accepted taxonomy first, Georgia-specific evidence separated from general biology, and no invented regional maps.

This is a growing profile set, not a complete national scorpion checklist. A species appears here only when a sourced page is ready.

Catalog

2 scorpions in the atlas

Each profile states whether the species is confirmed in Georgia and whether sources support exact localities or only country-level occurrence.

Each category gathers the relevant species on one guide page, where you can continue to a specific snake’s full profile.

FAQ

What people ask about scorpions here

Short answers - detailed information is on profiles.

No. This hub publishes individual scorpion profiles when enough reliable sources are available. Absence from the hub does not mean a species is absent from Georgia.

The first published scorpion profile is the mottled scorpion, Mesobuthus eupeus, known in Georgian as ჭრელი მორიელი.

Scorpion pages use the same species-profile structure: taxonomy, identification, habitat, Georgia-specific evidence, sting risk where relevant, and sources.

Only when a profile has sourced regional or local records. A country-level occurrence source does not automatically colour every Georgian region.

No. A scorpion sting can be painful and may cause wider symptoms. Do not touch wild scorpions by hand. If a sting causes strong symptoms, involves a child, allergy, or uncertainty, call 112.
