Abstract
FLOREZ D, EDUARDO. Rhopalurus caribensis, is a synonym of Rhopalurus laticauda (Scorpiones, Buthidae). Rev. Colomb. Entomol. [online]. 2012, vol.38, n.2, pp.365-367. ISSN 0120-0488.
Rhopalurus caribensis Teruel & Roncallo, 2008 (n. syn.) is synonymized with R. laticauda Thorell, 1876, based on a review of morphological variations of characters listed by Roncallo and Teruel (2008). The biogeographic assumption presented by Teruel & Roncallo (2008) as an argument to justify the description of R. caribensis is refuted.
Keywords : Synonymy; Taxonomy; Colombia.
