Abstract: | La presente contribución esclarece la identidad taxonómica de Tityus championi Pocock 1898. Esta especie es claramente distinta de Tityus asthenes Pocock 1893 (considerada su sinónimo anterior desde 1988) y parece ser endémica de la vertiente sur de la Cordillera de Talamanca, en la región fronteriza entre Costa Rica y Panamá.
