    I don’t know how common it is, but in some very rural parts of Kentucky and Tennessee in the USA, people frequently referred to scorpions as lizards. Also, regular lizards were called lizards. And newts were called lizards.

    It was very confusing to me when I was a young kid. Still is confusing to me if I’m being honest.
