Noteworthy records of Brachypelma (Araneae: Theraphosidae) from Peninsula of Yucatan, Mexico.

We report new distribution records of two tarantula species from the genus Brachypelma (Simon 1891) within the Peninsula of Yucatan: B. vagans (Ausserer 1875) and B. epicureanum (Chamberlin 1925). B. vagans distribution is confirmed for the Mexican state of Yucatan. We also provide zoogeographical information from specimens deposited in the Coleccion Entomologica Regional at the Campus de Ciencias Biologicas y Agropecuarias of the Universidad Autonoma de Yucatan.
