}}Akrav israchanani is an extinct species of scorpions from the Ayyalon Cave in Israel.[1]

Description

Akrav israchanani was an eyeless, brown, troglobitic scorpion of about 50mm in length first described from only 20 dry, cuticular remains of hollow carcasses.[1] The combinations of characteristics was unusual enough for the scorpion to be placed in its own, monotypic family, however this has been called into question by later researchers[2]

Habitat and Distribution

The scorpion was originally known only from the Ayyalon Cave in Israel, a deep limestone cave, isolated from rainwater and the surface by a layer of chalk. The extinction of the scorpion is inferred from the lack of live or recently dead specimens.[1][2] In December 2015, more scorpions remains were found in the nearby Levana Cave.[3]
