海南岛的蝎子地理分布研究

The Study on Geographical Distribution of Scorpiones in Hainan Island

蝎目是蛛形动物中较早登陆且又比较原始的类群,在蛛形动物进化历程中占重要地位,是已知最古老的陆生节肢动物之一,具有较高的药用价值和食用价值.本文对海南岛蝎子的生态地理分布进行了研究,从理论上丰富了热带地区蝎目动物的地理分布和物种丰富度等方面的内容;在实践上,拓宽了应用的领域,有利于对不同蝎目动物的资源开发和利用,同时也为保护这类古老的动物提供了依据.经调查,共发现蝎目动物2科3属3种,均为海南已有记录种类,其中钳蝎科2种,分别为等蝎属的斑等蝎和狼蝎属的细尖狼蝎;瘦尾蝎科1种,系链尾蝎属的澳链尾蝎.

Scorpion is regarded as the most primitive group among arachnids and occupies the important position of evolution course in arachnid. It has high medicinal and edible value. This article studies on the ecogeographical distribution, it enriched theoretically tropical geographical distribution and species richness; it is beneficial for scorpions to develop and exploit in practice; at the same time, it also provides a basis for protecting these ancient animals. After investigation, totally 3 species belonging to 3 genera and 2 families were found, all have been recorded, Isometrus and Lychas belong to buthidae, they are Isometrus mozulates and Lychas mucronatus, Liocheles belongs to Ischnuridae it is Liocheles australasiae.
