Scorpions in Australia

Scorpions belong to the same family of which spiders are: the “Arachnidae” family. There are about 100 species of scorpions present in Australia. Some households are located in the-city-center area or nearby a jungle that often complains about scorpions entering their houses. Australia has a variety of scorpion that has a size from 2-12 cm long, the most popular scorpion among all species is marbled scorpion having black and white spots in its body also known as (Lychas marmoreus). Scorpion bite is very dangerous and painful, and it can cause death due to its strong allergic reaction. Scorpions prey on small insects, small mice, other scorpions, spiders, and even they love to bite humans.

The types of scorpions majorly found in Australia are mentioned below:

  • Marbled scorpion (1.5-4cm long, usually enters houses)

  • Spider-hunting scorpion (live in Australia’s Inland)
  • Salt-lake scorpion (live in South Australia’s barren salt lakes)
