Very interesting beetle. I have no clue what this is.

No more than a centimeter in length

Photographed while still alive and kicking! Moments after pumping it up from the groundwater via the Bou-Rouch pump method

on a high limestone cliff

Individual was a juvenile, about an inch long.

These were found in Aubrey Valley in area of fine grained reddish soil with small yucca type vegetation. Not certain that boreus is the correct species here.

Narrowed it down to either Northern Scorpion or Eastern Sand Scorpion

Found in sandy soil under a rock. Had made a silken cacoon that was mixed with sand. Mature male by the pedipalps.

On gypsum. Unusual leaves, smell, and overall look.

Fuzz and bright coloring on recently flood washed rock
