Uroctonus grahami Gertsch and Soleglad (troglobite) 
Records: Shasta Co.: Samwel Cave (type locality). 
Comment: This scorpion has reduced median eyes and was compared by the authors to the European Belisaurus as “prob¬ 
ably endogean in habit.” It was collected during an excavation for fossils at a depth of 2.4 m in the damp floor at the back 
of the main entrance. Other specimens have been collected from under a stone in the lower entrance and in an entrance 
crawlway. The species is known only from this cave. Its color is yellowish with black eyes.
