Parabuthus granulatus is a brownish scorpion, 75-115 mm long, slender and finely granulated.
P. granulatus lives in burrow excavations at the base of shrubs and under stones in consolidated sandy soils. It actively forages for prey and is highly aggressive. It is the most venomous scorpion in Southern Africa yet the volume of poison released is about a third of that released by P. transvaalicus.
