The Bothriuridae are a family of scorpions, comprising 151 species in 16 genera.[1]

The family has representatives in temperate and subtropical habitats from four continents: South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. One genus (Cercophonius) has recently been discovered in the Himalayas.

The members of this family have a unique feature - the normally pentagonal sternum consists of two transverse bars (except Liposoma and Tehuankea) and is several times broader than long.
