Chihuahuanus glabrimanus, Centruroides balsasensis, Listado de especies, Partenogénesis, Colecciones científicasResumen
Se revisó la escorpiofauna del estado de Aguascalientes con base en ejemplares depositados en colecciones científicas y trabajo de campo. Se evaluó la completitud del inventario de especies de escorpiones de la Colección Zoológica de la Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes (CZUAA) mediante métodos no paramétricos. Los resultados indican un aumento del inventario de 11 a 13 especies; se registra por primera vez a la especie psamofílica Chihuahuanus
glabrimanus (Sissom y Hendrixson, 2005) y la especie de importancia para la salud pública Centruroides balsasensis
Ponce-Saavedra y Francke, 2004. Finalmente, se brinda una clave de identificación de especies de escorpiones de
Aguascalientes, así como un recuento de caracteres ecológicos y biológicos de las especies estudiadas.
