Karyotype analysis and achiasmatic meiosis in pseudoscorpions of the family Chthoniidae (Arachnida: Pseudoscorpiones).
Karyotypes of pseudoscorpions (Arachnida, Pseudoscorpiones) are largely unknown. Here we describe for the first time karyotypes of the suborder Epiocheirata, represented by 9 European species of two genera of Chthoniidae, Chthonius and Mundochthonius. Diploid chromosome numbers of males range from 21 to 37. Karyotypes of both genera differ substantially. Acrocentric chromosomes predominate in k...

متن کاملTwo New Cave-Dwelling Species of the Short-Tailed Whipscorpion Genus Rowlandius (Arachnida: Schizomida: Hubbardiidae) from Northeastern Brazil, with Comments on Male Dimorphism
Two new species of the arachnid order Schizomida, Rowlandius ubajara sp.nov. and Rowlandius potiguar sp.nov., are described based on both male and female specimens collected in caves from northeastern Brazil. Rowlandius ubajara is known only from the Ubajara Cave, in the state of Ceará; R. potiguar is recorded from 20 caves of the Apodi Limestone Group, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. A re...
