Pseudoscorpions (Arachnida: Pseudoscorpiones) in the norteastern Andean region of Colombia

Abstract (en):

An exploration of diversity of the Order Pseudoscorpiones in the noreastern Andean region of Colombia was carried out. The arachnological collection of the Instituto de Ciencias Naturales was revised and sampling was carried out at three sites in departments of Santander and Norte de Santander for a week by manually sifting leaf litter. A total of nine morphospecies in six genera of the families Tridenchthoniidae, Syarinidae, Olpiidae, Withiidae and Chernetidae are reported. The geographic distribution of Ideobisium puertoricense and altitudinal range of Ideobisium peckorum is increased. The family Tridenchthoniidae is recorded for the first time in Colombia.

Abstract (es):

Se realizó una evaluación de la diversidad de pseudoescorpiones en la región Andina nororiental de Colombia.
Se revisó la colección aracnológica del Instituto de Ciencias Naturales y se efectuaron muestreos en tres
sitios de los departamentos de Santander y Norte de Santander durante una semana mediante revisión manual
de cernido de hojarasca. Se estudiaron 94 ejemplares y se encontraron nueve morfoespecies pertenecientes
a seis géneros de las familias Tridenchthoniidae, Syarinidae, Olpiidae, Withiidae y Chernetidae. Se amplía
la distribución altitudinal de Ideobisium peckorum, geográfica de Ideobisium puertoricense y la familia
Tridenchthoniidae, la cual se registra por primera vez para Colombia.
