    Two new Tityus C. L. Koch, 1836 (Scorpiones: Buthidae) from Hispaniola, Greater Antilles
    (2018) Rolando Teruel; Gabriel De los Santos; Gabriel de los Santos; Museo Nacional de Historia Natural
    Two new species of Buthidae scorpions of the genus Tityus C. L. Koch, 1836 are herein described from the Greater Antillean island of Hispaniola. One of them belongs to the "crassimanus" species-group and is known from an adult pair collected at Massif de la Hotte, in southwestern Haiti. The other belongs to the "quisqueyanus" species-group and is known from a single adult female from a high peak in the Central Range (= Cordillera Central), in northwestern Dominican Republic. Moreover, two fossil taxa from this island are retained as junior synonyms of Tityus geratus Santiago-Blay, 1988†.
