Taxonavigation

Ordo: Scorpiones
Familia: Buthidae
Genus: Buthus

Name

Buthus tunetatus (Herbst, 1800) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Type material

Types lost according to Fet and Lowe (2000)[34], Tunisia.

Distribution

The species is currently distributed across Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia, and doubtfully in the island of Malta.

Remarks

Because of the description of new species from Tunisia, and the lack of both type specimen and locality (beyond the country), a neotype for B. tunetanus is necessary to stabilize the taxonomy of Tunisian Buthus. As explained for B. paris, this is further complicated by recent diagnoses of B. tunetanus that differ from those offered by Vachon (1952a)[26], and as such if Vachon’s B. tuntetanus material is found in the MNHN it should be given priority in the future designation of a neotype. Vachon (1952a)[26] did not formally described any variety of B. tunetanus, but he again split the specimens that compose the species into four regions: 1) the typical region, corresponding to north and central Tunisia; 2) the southern montane region of Algeria, specimens from which have subsequently been described as B. tassili; 3) the Algerian Saharan Atlas and the southern region of the High Plateau; and 4) the disjunct desert regions of southern Tunisia, western central Algeria and eastern central Morocco. It is unclear whether region 3 or 4 might either correspond to B. dunlopi or B. saharicus. As explained in Fet and Lowe (2000)[34], the name A. (Leiurus) t. genuinus refers to the nominotypical form of the species and as such the adjective “genuinus” is not an available subspecific name.
