Description of some new scorpions from Central and South America . Centruroides limbatus is found throughout Costa Rica, and in parts of Nicaragua and Honduras. This scorpion is quite common in Costa Rica. It is apparently less common in other parts of its range. They frequent human dwellings where food and shelter are abundant.
Food is any small arthropod.
Though large in size, this species is not considered dangerous to humans. Nonetheless, they are venomous and being stung by one is no picnic. Back to Scorpion du Jour page. All rights reserved.
