Microtityus rickyi

Microtityus rickyi is a small scorpion species in the family Buthidae. It is native to the Neotropical region.

The species is associated with the Neotropical region, which includes tropical parts of the Americas. A precise locality should be checked against a current taxonomic database because Microtityus distributions can be narrowly defined.

It is notable for distinct morphological characteristics used to separate it from related small buthid scorpions. Those features are examined through structures such as the pincers, body segments, and tail.

No. It is described as a small species. Its scientific interest comes more from its classification and morphology than from large body size.
