The body design of the Fattail scorpion has a beautiful look to it. The Fattail scorpion's body can be divided into the [[cephalothorax]] and the [[abdomen]]. The cephalothorax is the scorpions head. The cephalothorax has six pairs of [[appendages]] and a pair of [[eyes]] on top, with a few other pairs of eyes on the corners of their head. The head is also covered by a [[carapace]], which is basically the upper part of the [[exoskeleton]]. The [[mesosoma]] is the front part of the abdomen. This is made up of six segments. The first segment mainly has the reproductive organs. The second segment has some sensory structures called [[pectines]], and all of the other segments have book lungs for respiration. <ref> [http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Scorpion Scorpion] "New World Encyclopedia".
