Ultraconserved elements support a new tribal‐level classification for Australasian endemic dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Phylogenomic data obtained through sequencing ultraconserved elements are used to examine tribal classification in the subfamily Scarabaeinae with the aim of stabilizing classification of 32 unplaced Australasian genera. Phylogenies were generated from a 245,546 base pair alignment comprised of 1092 loci that included terminals representing 160 species

How Do Morphological Traits and Abundance Reflect the Effects of Land Use Change in a Seasonal Floodable Savannah? A Dung Beetle Case in the Brazilian Pantanal

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 12, Page 1268-1277, December 2025.
We investigated the effects of land‐use change on the abundance and morphological traits (body mass, pronotum ratios, protibial size, elytra ratio, and pronotum–abdomen proportion) of two dung beetle species (Dichotomius bos and D. nisus) in the Brazilian Pantanal.

Conservation of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) in Peninsular Malaysia

open access: yesJournal of Wildlife and Parks, 2019
Dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) have emerged as useful taxa for biodiversity monitoring due to their close association with mammalian diversity and forest structure. While an estimated 170 species have been found in Peninsular Malaysia thus far and several ecological studies have been conducted, very little has been discussed about the ...

Microallopatric Speciation in Southern African Dung Beetle Genus Macroderes Driven by Miocene Aridification and Ancestral Flight Loss

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Southern Africa harbours a diverse array of dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae), with many species endemic to the region. Despite this diversity, the historical drivers of their evolution remain largely unexplored. This study investigates the evolutionary history of the flightless dung beetle genus Macroderes, testing its monophyly ...

The Pupation Chamber of Dung Beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae)

open access: yesThe Coleopterists Bulletin, 2010
Third instars of the Scarabaeinae species Sulcophanaeus menelas (Laporte), Sulcophanaeus imperator (Chevrolat), Sulcophanaeus batesi (Harold) (all Phanaeini), Ontherus sulcator (F.) (Dichotomiini), and Malagoniella argentina (Gillet) (Canthonini) construct pupation chambers inside brood balls. Similar chambers are constructed by larvae of Anomiopsoides

Copro-necrophagous beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) diversity in an agroecosystem in Yucatan, Mexico

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2007
Scarabaeinae are sensitive to structural habitat changes caused by disturbance. We compared copronecrophagous beetle (Scarabaeinae) community structure in three differently managed zones within an agroecosystem of the northern Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico ...
