Morphometry and geographical variation of Bothriurus bonariensis (Scorpiones: Bothriuridae)

Journal of Arachnology, 2012
Diversification of morphological characteristics among geographically separated populations is particularly important in understanding evolutionary processes and is considered the early stage of allopatric speciation. In the present study, we investigated geographic variation in scorpion populations of Bothriurus bonariensis (Koch 1842).
