CARABOCTONIDAE
Kraepelin,
1905 | |
| This family was established recently in Soleglad & Fet's major revision of higher scorpion systematics. In 2020, the subfamily Hadrurinae Stahnke, 1973 was removed
from this family and elevated to family status, Hadruridae Stahnke, 1974.
Members of this family are found in South America (Ecuador, Peru and Chile; Galapagos Islands
and mainland Ecuador), and
they were previsouly included in the family Iuridae. Caraboctonidae currently has two genera and and 26
species [Updated 23.11.23].
The scorpions in this family are not considered medical significant, but sting might be painful.
