[Taxacom] scorpion systematics question

[Tony Rees]

Hi John,

I am no expert and cannot answer your question exactly, but the following
recent sources may be relevant:

- Santibáñez-López et al., 2019: Phylogenomics facilitates stable scorpion
systematics: Reassessing the relationships of Vaejovidae and a new
higher-level classification of Scorpiones (Arachnida).

- Sharma et al., 2018: A revised dated phylogeny of scorpions: Phylogenomic
support for ancient divergence of the temperate Gondwanan family
Bothriuridae.

- Rein, 2019: The Scorpion Files: Iuridae.

Otherwise, I would just check the genera of interest in Google Scholar with
a date filter, for example,
https://scholar.google.com/scholar?as_ylo 15&q=Iurus , and see what shows
up...

In case they are useful, and you have not already seen them.
