Scherabon (1987) recorded for the Austrian fauna two separate forms under Euscorpius germanus (C. L. KOCH), a so-called typical (T-Form) from Tyrol and Carinthia, and a Karawanken- Form (K-Form) limited to southern Carinthia. New morphological data on animals collected in Carinthia, Italy and Slovenia, as well as genetic analyses (allozymes and mitochondrial DNA), show that the so-called K-Form is in fact a separate species belonging to the Euscorpius mingrelicus complex, a phylogenetic lineage distinct from E. germanus (C. L. KOCH). The correct name for this species is E. gamma CAPORIACCO, 1950, stat. nov. (=E. germanus histrorum CAPORIACCO, 1950). It was described from northeastern Italy and the adjacent territory of Slovenia as a subspecies of E. germanus; we fix a lectotype of this species from the Risano (now Rizana) River in northern Istria, Slovenia. E. gamma is also found in Croatia. A number of other forms of the E. mingrelicus complex are found in the Balkans and Anatolia; their status is still unclear. We also fix a neotype of Euscorpius mingrelicus (KESSLER, 1874) from Batumi, Georgia (Caucasus).

The author found syntopic specimens of Euscorpius italicus and E. tergestinus inside and nearby an abandoned fortress in Verona Province, Veneto, Italy. This discovery highlights a possibility of coexistence of congeneric species not only in the same territory, as already observed, but also in the same habitat and microhabitat, bringing some interesting questions about interspecific competition within the genus Euscorpius. \

The author observed seven species of Euscorpius in 1999\–2005 (E. alpha, E. sicanus, E. tergestinus, E. concinnus, E. naupliensis, E. italicus, and E. flavicaudis) in their natural environment, mainly in Italy but also in France, Swit- zerland, and Greece. Ecology of these species is discussed as well as predatory behavior occasionally observed in nature. This work provides new data on the distribution and ecology of European Euscorpiidae.

Abstract: A new species belonging to the genus Buthus Leach, 1815 (Scorpiones: Buthidae) is described from Palermo province, in Sicily. Buthus trinacrius sp. n. shows morphological affinities with Buthus occitanus (Amoreux), originally described from southern France, but, in some characters, also with some African Buthus species. For morphological, biogeographical and geological rea- sons, the new species could represent a link between African and European Buthus populations. If Buthus inhabited the Italian Pe- ninsula in past geological times, it probably regressed and became extinct due to severe climatic modifications which took place since the end of the Tertiary period. Regarding the occurrence in Sicily of Buthus, surely still present on the island during the 19th century but maybe extinct now, a possible explanation could be the heavy urbanization of the Palermo region.

After the revision of Fet \& Soleglad (2002), Euscorpius tergestinus (C. L. Koch, 1837) was considered a polymorphic species widespread from France to Croatia. In this study, we reconsidered the taxonomy of E. tergestinus s.str. based on morphological and genetic evidence, its range, and its original description. Euscorpius aquilejensis (C. L. Koch, 1837), stat. nov., previously synonymous with E. tergestinus, is elevated to species status herein. A preliminary phylogenetic analysis based on available GenBank 16S rDNA data shows a separate, basal position of\  E. aquilejensis and some other Euscorpius species, which implies that the subgenus Euscorpius s.str. is paraphyletic.

A new species of the genus Euscorpius Thorell, 1876 is described based on specimens collected at the locality Celano (AQ), Abruzzo, central Italy. It is characterized by a peculiar trichobothrial pattern (eba = 5-5 + eb = 4-4), a large number of pectine teeth, and a general colouration which is dark brownish, with legs and telson yellowish. With the description of this new species a new trichobothrial pattern is described. The number of Euscorpius species in Italy is thus raised to ten, and the number of species in the subgenus Euscorpius to five.
