A new Alloscorpiops from Thailand

Frantisek Kovarik has recently described a new species of Alloscorpiops Vachon, 1980 (Euscorpiidae) from Thailand.

Alloscorpiops citadelle Kovarik, 2013

This paper was published just after Wilson Lourenco's recent description of a new species of Alloscorpiops from Laos, and the two authors probably didn't know about the other's new species.

Abstract:
Alloscorpiops citadelle sp. n. from Thailand is described and compared with A. anthracinus (Simon, 1887). A. citadelle sp. n. is characterized mainly by a higher number of trichobothria on the patella, which has 29–34 external (23–24 in A. anthracinus) and 19–21 ventral (15–19 in A. anthracinus) trichobothria.
