- Also known as Hentz Striped Scorpion.
- This New World scorpion was previously known only from FL in the United States, occurs in Mobile & Baldwin counties, AL, & in the southern tier of counties in GA. Occurrences of C. hentzi in Durham, Carteret, & Brunswick counties, NC, Charleston County, SC, & Harris & Muscogee counties, GA, are considered to represent accidental human importations, although it is also possible that the more proximal ones are peripheral isolates.
- The adult size ranges from 1.5" - 3" in length, with some reaching 3.5".
- Usually occurs under litter, logs, and stones in Florida; it can also be found under bark of dead trees and often enters houses. North of Florida, specimens were encountered under pine and oak bark.
- Pectine count is ♀17-19, ♂ 16-18.
