Studies on the Organization and Development of Scorpions

چکیده
IN this work I have undertaken the study of the different organs of scorpions from the point of view of comparative anatomy. The extensive literature on this subject contains a number of gaps (e. g. the male genital organs have not been investigated in sections), and besides in the majority of works the material is restricted to some species of the genera B u t h u s or E u s c o r p i u s. The necessity of studying the organization of the tropical forms has, however, been felt for a long time. In the present investigations I had two aims in view. In the first place I undertook the re-examination of the structure of some of the most interesting organs of certain representatives of the families Buthidae, Chactidae, and Scorpionidae, on fresh material collected in most cases by myself in Algeria and Tunis (Scorpio maurus , B u t h u s aus t ra l i s ) . The collection of material (Buthidae: B u t h u s caucas i cus , A n o m a l o b u t h u s r ickmers i , L i o b u t h u s Kessler i ) was continued by me in the summer of 1915 in Russian Turkestan.
