Resumen
QUIJANO-RAVELL, Ana F. y PONCE-SAAVEDRA, Javier. A new species of scorpion of the genus Centruroides (Scorpiones: Buthidae) from the state of Michoacán, Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2016, vol.87, n.1, pp.49-61. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2016.01.022.
Centruroides ruana sp. nov. is described from Felipe Carrillo Puerto, from the Buenavista Municipality in the state of Michoacán, Mexico. The new species was compared with C. balsasensisPonce-Saavedra & Francke, 2004, C. infamatus Koch, 1844, and C. limpidus (Karsch, 1879), which are both morphologically its closest relatives and geographically proximate. The description includes the male holotype, with 7 male and 8 female paratypes. A supplementary morphometric analysis is also presented allowing to distinguish the 4 species.
