“…The scorpion fauna of Saudi Arabia consists of 35 species (Alqahtani et al, 2019), and shares only two species with Kuwait, Androctonus crassicauda and Compsobuthus pallidus. Iran hosts the highest number of species reaching 68 species (Dehghani & Kassiri, 2018;Barahoei et al, 2020), sharing both Apistobuthus susanae and Androctonus crassicauda.

This is the first preliminary study on the scorpions of Kuwait. Three species of scorpions were identified, described and illustrated from the State of Kuwait. Identified species belong to family Buthidae: Apistobuthus susanae, Androctonus crassicauda and Compsobuthus pallidus. Measurements were given for Apistobuthus susanae. Morphometric measurements were given for the three species, along with comparison of Apistobuthus susanae and Apistobuthus pterygocercus.
