Neobuthus factorio is a species of scorpion from the Buthidae family found in Somaliland.

Taxonomy

Specimens of N. factorio may have been collected and temporarily categorized as Neobuthus ferrugineus since 2012.[1] They were defined as a separate species once a larger number of samples could be collected between 2016–2018. The species was named after Factorio, a game created by the son of one of the researchers who described the species.[1]

Description

The males are much smaller in size, having an average of 17–19 mm in length, while females have 24–27 mm. The pedipalps are relatively slender, with a matte, finely granulated texture in males, and smooth and glossy on females. The body's base colour is of a pale yellow, with dark patterns in the metasoma, pedipalps and legs.[1]

Distribution

N. factorio can be found in Somaliland, on rocky areas of semi-desert, occasionally near river beds. The localities of Neobuthus factorio are near to the localities of Neobuthus berberensis.[1]
