Abstract:
Scorpionism is a global health concern, with an estimation of over one million annual envenomation cases. Despite this, little is known regarding the drivers of scorpion venom potency. One widely held view is that smaller scorpions with less-developed chelae possess the most potent venoms. While this perception is often used as a guide for medical intervention, it has yet to be tested in a formal comparative framework. Here, we use a phylogenetic comparative analysis of 36 scorpion species to test whether scorpion venom potency, as measured using LD50, is related to scorpion body size and morp

Abstract:
Scorpions represent very dangerous arachnids of the order Scorpiones (Phylum: Arthropoda, Kingdom: Animalia). Scorpion envenomation is a life-threatening health issue in tropical and subtropical regions. The Egyptian map can reveal many of these night-crawling creatures in different parts of the country. Scorpion venom has special characteristics that must be more studied to get the mysterious treasure inside. Also, the management of an envenomated person must have a widespread upto-date protocol around the world.

Abstract:
The survival value of leg autotomy during attacks by scorpions (Vaejovis waueri Gertsch and Soleglad, 1972 (Scorpiones: Vaejovidae)) was assessed in three successive instars of the wolf spider Gladicosa pulchra (Keyserling, 1877) (Araneae: Lycosidae). During the first three instars after hatching, spiders were subjected to predatory encounters with adult scorpions. Spider survival due to leg autotomy decreased and the tendency of scorpions to use the sting to subdue the spiders increased with increasing size of wolf spider instars. As spider instar size increased, more scorpion attacks were di

Abstract:
The evolutionary history of scorpions, one of the most charismatic groups of arthropods with over 2,500 described species, is a subject of great interest. Given their unique body plan and ancient fossil record, understanding their phylogeny is crucial. Recent genome-scale data have shown potential in elucidating interfamilial relationships within the scorpion tree of life; however, discrepancies between molecular datasets have also been observed. To address this, we explored the phylogenetic relationships of scorpions by synthesizing three previous phylogenomic studies using model comparison m

The scientific (Latin) names of scorpion species are widely used across the world by both experts and amateurs. However, in China, there is a great need for designating standardized Chinese names for various scorpions since it is difficult for those not familiar with Latin alphabet to memorize the scientific names. Currently used Chinese names often cause confusion and misunderstanding due to a lack of standardized, unified naming.

Scorpion toxins are thought to have originated from ancestral housekeeping genes that underwent diversification and neofunctionalization, as a result of positive selection. Our understanding of the evolutionary origin of these peptides is hindered by the patchiness of existing taxonomic sampling. While recent studies have shown phylogenetic inertia in some scorpion toxins at higher systematic levels, evolutionary dynamics of toxins among closely related taxa remain unexplored.

Accidents with scorpions are a problem in several regions of the world. In Brazil, the number of accidents is sometimes higher than 160k/year, and the responsible for most accidents and deaths is the yellow scorpion Tityus serrulatus. Unfortunately, there are few publications testing the effectiveness of most of the products for chemical control of scorpions. Using the pesticide Bifentol, we tested: I–the effect of the pesticide on the mortality of T. serrulatus, II–whether the scorpion avoids areas with pesticide and, III–whether it leaves the shelter if pesticide is applied.
