Ramy Jhasser Martínez and co-workers have recently published an article with new data on the distribution of Centruroides edwardsii (Gervais, 1843) and Tityus ocelote Francke & Stockwell, 1987 (both Buthidae) in Panama.
Abstract:
Centruroides edwardsii (Gervais, 1843) (Buthidae C. L. Koch, 1837) is recorded for the first time in Panama upon three females collected in Chilibre (northern Panama). Additionally five females and one male of Tityus ocelote Francke & Stockwell, 1987 were collected in a small farm in Capira (Western Panama) being the first record of this species in the Pacific side of Panama. This contribution provides additional information on geographic distribution of these species.
