Chaerilobuthus schwarzi Lourenço, 2015 (Family Chaerilobuthidae )

A very small juvenile with a total length of 5.74 mm. Specimen included in a very clear rounded piece of amber. Global coloration pale yellow. The species is clearly characterised by the shape and size of the telson, the absence of eyes, the typical carinae on femur, patella and chela and the size of pectines with a number of 6 teeth, which suggests that the specimen is a male ( Fig. 16- 17).
