Androctonus cf. bicolor.
The surveillance data is not mine, but my colleague's. He was in Libya and was able to find this scorpion, then he gave it to me and allowed me to post this observation.

tobiashaysDescription
Under stone in litter, shallow slope under Quercus agrifola. An egg appears to be stuck near the flagellum.
Update: Dr. Monjaraz-Ruedas pointed out that the egg is too small for a schizomid, and is probably from a parasitoid.
Observation for the egg: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/160617888
