On the Morphology of Orthochirus stockwelli (Lourenço & Vachon, 1995) with First Description of a Female (Scorpiones: Buthidae).

Orthochirus stockwelli (Lourenço & Vachon, 1995) was originally described based on male holotype specimen from Bandar-Abbas (Hormozgan) under the genus Paraorthochirus. The morphology of this species is redescribed here based on the specimens collected from Bandar-Abbas on the basis of both sexes. The original description includes a female, but very little information was given on its morphology and does not include illustration belonging to the female. Therefore, the female is described for the first time in this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
