Akrav israchanani (from Hebrew עקרב (akráv) 'scorpion') is an extinct species of scorpions from the Ayalon Cave in Israel.
Akrav israchanani was an eyeless, brown, troglobitic scorpion of about 50mm in length first described from only 20 dry, cuticular remains of hollow carcasses.
[1] The combinations of characteristics was unusual enough for the scorpion to be placed in its own, monotypic family, however this has been called into question by later researchers.
The extinction of the scorpion is inferred from the lack of live or recently dead specimens.
[1][2] In December 2015, more scorpion remains were found in the nearby Levana Cave.
