Biography

Brontoscorpio is a genus of fossil scorpion. Remains of the only known species, Brontoscorpio anglicus, were discovered in the Lochkovian St. Maughan's Formation.[1][2]-aged sandstone from Trimpley, Worcestershire.[3] The species was described on the basis of an incomplete single free finger of a right pedipalp (In31405), almost 10 centimetres (3.9 in) long.[3][4] The complete animal is estimated to have been at least 90 centimetres (3 ft) long.[3] The species is characterized by the presence of single condyle and row of thick tubercles on the pedipalp free finger.[3] The remains were found in terrestrial sediments, but it is believed, that due to its size, Brontoscorpio had to enter the water to molt. Possibly it lived a semi or fully aquatic life.[5]
