Various types of body part abnormalities have been reported for scorpions, but there are very few reported cases of wound healing. Fatih Yeşilyurt & Ersen Aydın Yağmur have recently reported an example of this in a specimen of Hottentotta saulyci (Simon, 1880) (Buthidae) from the central district of Hakkari Province in Turkey.
Abstract:
A new case of injury healing on the carapace is reported in a female Hottentotta saulcyi (Simon, 1880). An asymmetrical indentation was observed on the anterior part of the carapace, resulting from the healing of an old injury. The indentation is relatively deep, with muscle tissue visible inside it. Scar tissue is present at the end of indentation and healing tissue is present along its margins.
