Default Sphinx collar badge for Scottish regiments WW1

Can anyone advise on which Scottish regiments wore sphinx collar badges during WW1?

I am aware that the Gordon Highlanders wore sphinx for some time, but not sure until when and do not know of other regiments who wore the same.

Any insights appreciated!

Gordon officers wore the sphinx only on OSD. The tiger in bullion embroidery on full dress.
