The deathstalker (Leiurus quinquestriatus) is a species of scorpion, a member of the family Buthidae.

It is also known as the Palestine Yellow Scorpion, Omdurman Scorpion, Naqab Desert Scorpion and by many other colloquial names, which generally originate from the commercial captive trade of the animal.
