picked up these 2 socrpions from a friend this afternoon thought it was 2 red claws but one is an emperor.
the tanzanian red claw



not the most friendly scorpion



and the emperor, i couldnt work out what it was as didnt realise they can look very green in natural light





and a couple of new ones of keith the banded flat rock


the friend i got them from showed me their 2 adult emperors, i didnt realise how big these acctually get they were easily the size of my palm

I think you have correctly identified your unknown as a emperor, the smoothish pincer inners made me think Asian Forest but the green hue is an emperor trait and well it looks emperorish lol.

Nice looking arachnotanks, I do like a Scorpion or two. Have you had any of yours moult yet, they suddenly double in size overnight, very unnerving, you wonder if its still the same temperament.

i did look up asian forest scorpions but the ones i found had very thin claws compared to this one. had no idea they had a green hue till i got reaserching.
not had any of them moult yet i got these 2 today and the flat rock just sits under his rock all day/night.
scorpions really fascinate me, im getting tempted to get a baboon tarantula at some point possibly a feather leg baboon

OBT's have a horrible reputation, I have not really found this to be the case, they are fast, that is true but they run away and go into their burrow, they are just easily frightened in my opinion, my Salmon pink is the scary one, its bold as brass, not phased by my presence and aggressive as hell, I actually hold her back with a straw while I clean out the tub with tongs as she is straight over to see what's going on and quite often will attack the straw, got to keep a strong nerve around that one. lol. The OBT just legs it and hides in its burrow or in a corner if its the burrow been cleaned. Long story short, get a OBT.

Very nice and ugly at the same time if I ever got the emperor I'd have to get a black light lol, I know most if not all scorpions glow under the light but would only get one if I had an emperor just cause of there size.
