Scorpion Pose (vrik-shah-sa-na) Vrischika-asana - The Sanskrit word for scorpion is Vrischika. This posture is so named because the body resembles a scorpion with its tail arched above its head ready to sting its victim.
Vrshikasana (scorpion pose) is also a variation of pinca mayurasana and sirsana and it throws in back bending as well.
