Seasonal reproductive dynamics and senescence have profound impacts on male fertility, yet these processes remain understudied in scorpions. This study investigates how parameters-such as testicular mass, sperm quantity, viability-change over the course of season

Body condition may be an important additional tool for ecological studies. However, this information is still lacking many arachnids such as scorpions. In addition, sex can considered a determining factor in the body of individuals since it present differences lifehistory traits. Thus, we evaluated litter-dwelling scorpion Tityus pusillus Pocock, 1893. For this, 88 (44 by sex) were used, where following parameters measured: size, fresh, dry, lipid and muscle mass. Our results showed that females have significantly higher values than males all measured. Differences life-history traits between sexes, foraging activity reproductive investment directly related to these findings. Finally, our suggest possess environmental requirement maintain condition.
