Abstract

Miraldo, A., Krell, F-T., Smalen, M., Angus, R. B., & Roslin, T. (2014). Making the cryptic visible - resolving the species complex of Aphodius fimetarius (Linnaeus) and Aphodius pedellus (de Geer) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) by three complementary methods. Systematic Entomology, 39(3): 531-547. https://doi.org/10.1111/syen.12079

Abstract.

Species in cryptic complexes are, per definition, difficult to identify using morphological characters. One such complex was recently detected in the dung beetle Aphodius fimetarius (Linnaeus) sensu lato, an abundant dung beetle with a wide distribution.

By Robert D. Gordon & Paul E. Skelley
Memoirs of the American Entomological Institute, 2007
20 new genera, 38 new species, 28 new synonyms and 179 new combinations. For our fauna, only fimetarius remains in Aphodius. One example, the widespread Aphodius campestris is now Blackburneus aegrotus. Several genera have only one or two species.
