Abstract
Background: Local natural laboratories, designated by us as the ‘‘Evolution Canyon’’ model, are excellent tools to study
regionalandglobalecologicaldynamicsacrosslife.Theypresentabioticandbioticcontrastslocally,permittingthepursuit
of observations and experiments across diverse taxa sharing sharp microecological subdivisions. Higher solar radiation
received by the ‘‘African savannah-like’’ south-facing slopes (AS) in canyons north of the equator than by the opposite
‘‘Europeanmaquis-like’’north-facingslopes(ES)isassociatedwithhigherabioticstress.Scorpionsareasuitabletaxonto

abilitytoadapttodryenvironments.
Methodology/Principal Findings: Scorpions were studied by the turning stone method and by UV light methods. The
