Record of mygalomorph spider (Araneae: Theraphosidae) predation by a scorpion (Scorpiones: Buthidae) in a Brazilian seasonally dry tropical forest

Arachnology, 2021
An adult female of the buthid scorpion Tityus stigmurus Thorell, 1876 was found in the Caatinga vegetation (c. 20 cm height), feeding on a juvenile of the mygalomorph genus Dolichothele Mello-Leitão, 1923 (Fig. 1).

Cost of venom regeneration in Parabuthus transvaalicus (Arachnida: Buthidae)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2007
Scorpion venom has many components, but is mainly made up of water, salts, small molecules, peptides, and proteins. One can reasonably assume that the production and storage of this complex secretion is an expensive metabolic investment. However, to date, no study has addressed the costs associated with the regeneration of venom by scorpions.

Asexual reproduction in a sexual population of the Brazilian yellow scorpion (Tityus serrulatus, Buthidae) as evidence of facultative parthenogenesis

The journal of arachnology, 2021
. Most Brazilian yellow scorpion (Tityus serrulatus Lutz & Mello, 1922) populations reproduce by parthenogenesis, and only a few sexually reproducing populations are known. It has been suggested that the parthenogenesis in T.

Phylogeny of Parabuthus (Scorpiones, Buthidae)

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 The resultant topology is largely congruent with Lamoral’s (1978) unpublished topology for 14 Namibian species ...

Venom-spraying behavior of the scorpion Parabuthus transvaalicus (Arachnida: Buthidae)

Behavioural Processes, 2015
Many animals use chemical squirting or spraying behavior as a defensive response. Some members of the scorpion genus Parabuthus (family Buthidae) can spray their venom. We examined the stimulus control and characteristics of venom spraying by Parabuthus transvaalicus to better understand the behavioral context for its use.

The Chromosomes ofRhopalurus(Scorpiones-Buthidae)

The Canadian Entomologist, 1957
In a series of papers it has been shown thatTityuschromosomes are provided with one centromere at each end (2, 4, 5 and 6). Proofs of such a view were found in the behaviour of the chromosomes in the course of spermatogenesis in the widely distributed Brasilian speciesT. bahiensis(Perty).

Dated phylogenetic studies of the southernmost American buthids (Scorpiones; Buthidae)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2017
A dated molecular phylogeny of the southernmost American species of the family Buthidae, based on two nuclear and two mitochondrial genes, is presented. Based on this study, analyzed species of the subgenus Tityus (Archaeotityus) are neither sister to the remaining species of the genus Tityus, nor are they closely related to the New World microbuthids ...
