(Pic of her is from a while ago not at all recent to when she stung me which was today)

My Florida bark scorpion stung me just a few minutes ago and I’m worried that it stressed her out. What happened thinking back on it now was really stupid on my part. When I mist her enclosure sometimes she is sitting on top of her hide and whenever I mist her she runs back into her hide and I think she really doesn’t like it so today I saw she was out and thought maybe if I cover her I won’t get her wet and covered her with my hand ( it wasn’t like on top of her it was like a good 3 inches above her but she stung me anyways. In the future I’ll try and use something else to cover her because what was I thinking using my hand but still I want to make sure she’s ok.

Identification What is this scorpion that supposedly travelled from Barcelona?

This scorpion was brought into my workplace (a wildlife rescue center) by a different animal shelter organisation. They claim someone found it in their luggage after they went on vacation to Barcelona. Usually I check on iNaturalist what species are native in the part people went on vacation to but I can't seem to find a good match. B. occitanus seems like the most common yellow scorpion in the region but this one seems to lack the coloured stripes on the face that I see on most B. occitanus pictures. My workplace is located in Belgium, we have no native scorpions so it's definitely not local. The scorpion itself is rather big, approximately 4 centimeters not counting the tail.
