they are from iraq and iran. found in high plains, where they dig burrows up to 4 ft long in hard rocky soil. similar in appearance to u. asmussi. is active from late morning to early afternoon at temps of up to 112 degrees F, any higher may lead to distress. thats pretty much all i could find on them. hope it helped.

Thanks, but I already had this info. I'm mostly wondering if anyone has any personal experience with them?
Thanks!

Nicki,
You will have better luck looking outside of the U.S. for experience with this species.
It is not imported and I am not aware of anyone in the US that has these. I am not saying that it isn't possible, just a slim chance.

Debb, I thought this was likely the case, but wanted to check to see if I was wrong and there was someone here who knew about them.
Have a great day!
