Zabius fuscus is a scorpion of the family Buthidae, and the only species in the genus Zabius. They can be found in the mountains of central Argentina, and in various cities that are located in the center of the country. The species are ghostly blue coloured. The species are orophilous when it comes to habitat. They prefer to live in deep crevices of large, half buried blocks or outcrops. Sometimes they might be found under the stones. Just like any other scorpions they carry their young on their back.
