The first molecular phylogeny of Buthidae (Scorpiones) [PDF]
Euscorpius, 2003 Summary The first partial phylogeny of family Buthidae (17 genera) is presented, based on molecular data (16S rRNA mitochondrial DNA). The strong support for a monophyletic Old World group of 13 genera (mainly Palearctic desert forms) is demonstrated, while representative genera from Madagascar (Grosphus) and Southeast Asia (Lychas) group outside, as ...

Study of the Acute Toxicity of Scorpion Leiurus macroctenus Venom in Rats. [PDF]
ScientificWorldJournalBackground. The expansion of the territory of human habitation leads to inevitable interference in the natural range of distribution of one or another species of animals, some of which may be dangerous for human life. Scorpions—the Arachnida class and order Scorpiones—can be considered as such typical representatives.

Phylogeny of Parabuthus (Scorpiones, Buthidae) [PDF]
Zoologica Scripta, 2001 A cladistic analysis of the 20 southern African species of Parabuthus Pocock, 1890 (Scorpiones, Buthidae) and five of the eight north‐eastern African and Arabian species is presented, based on 53 characters, mostly of the adult morphology. The resultant topology is largely congruent with Lamoral’s (1978) unpublished topology for 14 Namibian species ...

Evidence for recombination in scorpion mitochondrial DNA (Scorpiones: Buthidae) [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2005 There has been very little undisputed evidence for recombination in animal mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) provided so far. Previous unpublished results suggestive of mtDNA recombination in the scorpion family Buthidae, together with cytological evidence for a unique mechanism of mitochondrial fusion in that family, prompted us to investigate this group in ...
