Scorpio (genus)
''Scorpio'' is a genus of scorpions belonging to the family Scorpionidae. The species in this genus are found in northern Africa and western Asia. Species ''Scorpio'' was regarded as a monotypic genus for a long time, containing one widespread and highly variable species, ''S. maurus'', which had many subspecies. It has since been recognised that within ''S. maurus'' ''sensu lato'' there were a number of taxa which should be regarded as valid species and new species have been described from sub-Saharan Africa: * '' Scorpio birulai'' Fet, 1997 * '' Scorpio fuliginosus'' ( Pallary, 1928) * '' Scorpio hesperus'' Birula, 1910 * '' Scorpio maurus'' Linnaeus, 1758 * '' Scorpio mogadorensis'' Birula, 1910 * '' Scorpio niger'' Lourenço & Cloudsley-Thompson, 2012 * '' Scorpio punicus'' Fet The field-effect transistor (FET) is a type of transistor that uses an electric field to control the flow of current in a semiconductor.

This is a small/medium-sized scorpion from the family Scorpionidae. It has brown back and golden claws. There are many sub-species of this scorpion, 19 of which were described by Fet et al. The venom of ''Scorpio maurus'' contains a high variety of toxins including proteases, phospholipases, protease inhibitors and potassium channel toxins δ-KTx. Although its venom contains a weak neurotoxin called maurotoxin, ''S. maurus'' is not a dangerous scorpion for humans. There are no records of fatalities. Habits Found in very deep burrows in deserts and occasionally sparse woodland. Its habit of creating very deep burrows (up to 1 metre deep) means that in captivity this scorpion is often happiest with higher humidity Humidity is the concentration of water vapor present in the air.

Franz Werner
Franz Josef Maria Werner (15 August 1867 in Vienna – 28 February 1939 in Vienna) was an Austrian zoologist and explorer. Specializing as a herpetologist and entomologist, Werner described numerous species and other taxa of frogs, snakes, insects, and other organisms. His father introduced him at age six to reptiles and amphibians. A brilliant student, he corresponded often with George Albert Boulenger (1858–1937) and Oskar Boettger (1844–1910) who encouraged his studies with these animals. Werner obtained his doctorate in Vienna in 1890 and then after spending a year in Leipzig, began to teach at the Vienna Institute of Zoology. In 1919, he became tenured as a professor, maintaining this title until his retirement in 1933. Although working close to the Vienna Natural History Museum, he could not use their herpetological collections, after the death of its director, Franz Steindachner (1834–1919), who did not like Werner, and had barred him from accessing the collec ...
