Abstract (Original Language): 
The present study was undertaken to recognize and study the prohemocytes in five species of scorpion- Mesobuthus tamulus tamulus, Mesobuthus tamulus concanensis, Heterometrus xanthopus, Heterometrus phipsoni and Orthochirus bicolor. Light and phase contrast microscopic observations have showed seven distinct types of hemocytes in all five species ; prohemocytes (PRs), plasmocytes (PLs), granulocytes(GRs), spherulocytes (SPs), adipohemocytes (ADs), oenocytoids (ODs) and coagulocytes (COs). Largest PR was observed in Heterometrus xanthopus and smallest in Mesobuthus tamulus concanensis. PR of Heterometrus xanthopus was studied electron microscopically. Along with morphology Differential Hemocytes Count (DHC) was also studied.
