Abstract

ABSTRACT Four genera formed a monophyletic group, referred to as the Kochius clade, in the phylogeny of the North American vaejovid scorpion subfamily Syntropinae Kraepelin, 1905: Balsateres González-Santillán and Prendini, 2013; Kochius Soleglad and Fet, 2008; Kuarapu Francke and Ponce-Saavedra, 2010; and Thorellius Soleglad and Fet, 2008. In the present contribution, all except Kochius, treated elsewhere, are revised. The monotypic Balsateres and Kuarapu are redescribed. Thorellius cristimanus (Pocock, 1898) and Thorellius intrepidus (Thorell, 1876) are redescribed and their type localities discussed and clarified. Three new species of Thorellius are described: Thorellius tekuani; Thorellius wixarika; and Thorellius yuyuawi. Vaejovis intrepidus atrox Hoffmann, 1931, is newly synonymized with T. cristimanus based on examination of the type material. A key to identification of the species of Thorellius is presented, and new locality records and updated distribution maps provided for all species covered.

北美合托品Vaejovid Scorpion Genera Balsateres、Kuarapu和Thorelius的系统修订及三个新种的描述

摘要在北美瓦霍维德蝎亚科Syntropiae Kraepelin的系统发育中，有四个属组成了一个单系群，称为Kochius支，1905：Balsateres González Santillán和Prendini，2013；Kochius Solehared和Fet，2008年；Kuarapu Francke和Ponce Saavedra，2010年；以及Thorelius Solegely和Fet，2008年。在本贡献中，除Kochius外，其他地方处理的所有内容都进行了修订。对单型Balsateres和Kuarapu进行了重新描述。Thorelius cristimanus（Pocock，1898）和Thorelius intropidus（Thorell，1876）被重新描述，并讨论和澄清了它们的类型位置。文章记述了三个新的Thorelius种：特夸尼Thorelius tekuani；Thorelius wixarika；和Thorelius yuyuawi。Vaejovis intropidus atrox Hoffmann，1931年，根据对类型材料的检查，与T.cristimanus新同义。介绍了Thorelius物种鉴定的关键，并为所有物种提供了新的位置记录和更新的分布图。

期刊介绍： The Bulletin, published continuously since 1881, consists of longer monographic volumes in the field of natural sciences relating to zoology, paleontology, and geology. Current numbers are published at irregular intervals. The Bulletin was originally a place to publish short papers, while longer works appeared in the Memoirs. However, in the 1920s, the Memoirs ceased and the Bulletin series began publishing longer papers. A new series, the Novitates, published short papers describing new forms.
