Wilson R Lourenço1, Renner Luiz Cerqueira Baptista, Alessandro Ponce de Leão Giupponi.   

Abstract

A new genus and species of troglobitic buthid scorpion are described on the basis of a single specimen collected in Brazil. This is the first cavernicolous scorpion ever found in Brazil, and only the second to be found in South America. Some considerations on troglobitic scorpions are proposed.
