Ordo: Scorpiones
Familia: Buthidae
Genus: Buthus
Name
Buthus elongatus Rossi, 2012 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Type material
1 adult M holotype (MZUF N° 1432), Sierra Blanca (36.533°, 4.900°), Marbella, Malaga Province, Spain. Paratypes: 1 adult F (ARPC), same locality; 1 M, 1 F (MZUF N° 875), Playa del Alicate (36.499°, 4.818), Marbella, Malaga Province, Spain.
Distribution
this species is known from the southern Iberian Mediterranean coast, close to Marbella.
Remarks
The second locality given by Rossi as Alicante (sic), had a typographic error, as the coordinates given by the author, together with their map in Fig. 7, provide sufficient evidence for the correct mapping of this locality. Both localities are under severe anthropomorphic pressure.
