Characterized by highly specialized curved telotarsal claws which allows then to move quickly within their environment, but hinders their locomotion on looser substratum such as sand.
The carapace, pedipalps, and metasoma are all black while the legs and chela are pale to yellow. The metasoma and stinger are comparatively small when contrasted against other similarly sized scorpion species.
