ABSTRACT
The aim of the present study was to analyze the parametric values of Androctonus crassicauda (Oliver, 1807), the most significant scorpion species in Turkey. For this purpose, 11 male and 11 female A. crassicauda specimens were collected from Sanliurfa region. The body parts most important for species identification were measured by using sensitive calipers. Differences between sexes were statistically significant for pectinal organ length (female 7.50±1.26mm;male 8.63±1.05mm; p=0.033), pectinal tooth count (female 25.36±0.86;male 33.36±0.80; p=0.000), and carapace width (female 10.27±1.19mm;male 9.09±0.73mm; p=0.000). However, body length (female 90.09±14.74mm;male 82.95±5.40mm), abdomen width (female 12.09±1.90mm;male 11.09±0.88mm), and metasoma length (female 43.09±3.08mm;male 44.63±6.50mm) were not significantly different between sexes.(AU)
