Nevada Scorpions are facinating to watch. We at Arizona Scorpion World are trying to provide
some information on scorpions of adjacent states.
There are approximately 80 species of scorpions in the United States.
About 16 species of scorpions are found in Nevada. Here are photographs of 15 of those scorpion species.

Scorpions have their place in the scheme of things that has nothing
to do with stinging people.
Scorpions are among the world's oldest land invertebrates. Scorpions do a great job of
keeping insect populations in check.
