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 ...

On the Tityus stigmurus complex (Scorpiones, Buthidae)

Zootaxa, 2009
The species included in the Tityus stigmurus complex as established by Lourenço are revised. The male of Tityus serrulatus Lutz & Mello, 1922 is redescribed. New diagnostic characters are given for T. kuryi Lourenço 1997, T. melici Lourenço 2003, T. serrulatus and T. stigmurus Thorell, 1876. Tityus lamottei Lourenço 1981 and T.

Redescripción de Tityopsis aliciae (Scorpiones: Buthidae)

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2009
Se redescribe Tityopsis aliciae Armas y Martín-Frías, 1998 con base en una hembra adulta de la localidad tipo, Tehuantepec, Oaxaca. El holotipo, único ejemplar conocido previamente, es una hembra subadulta en muy mal estado de conservación, lo cual ocasionó imprecisiones en la descripción original.

Study of the Acute Toxicity of Scorpion Leiurus macroctenus Venom in Rats. [PDF]

ScientificWorldJournal
Background. 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.

New Insights on Genetic and Morphological Divergence Among a <i>Buthus</i> Species Complex From Tunisia With the Identification of a New Species. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This work presents a revision of Tunisian species within the genus Buthus. By combining molecular and morphological analyses, we describe a new species and we better define the distribution area of all the recorded species and provide new morphological criteria that facilitate their identification and differentiation.

Untangling the web: dynamics of Australia's online terrestrial invertebrate trade

Austral Entomology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 372-387, August 2023., 2023
Abstract The trade and keeping of exotic pets has serious implications for both biosecurity and biodiversity conservation. In Australia, the online trade of live invertebrates is an understudied and unregulated issue, with almost non‐existent monitoring. It is uncertain what species are being traded, whether they are being identified correctly, and how

Sexual selection and predation drive the repeated evolution of stridulation in Heteroptera and other arthropods

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 942-981, June 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.
