Dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) attracted to dung of the largest herbivorous rodent on earth: a comparison with human feces
(Environmental Entomology, 2018)
Soil fauna accelerate dung pat decomposition and nutrient cycling into grassland soil
(Society for Range Management, 2019-07)
Soil fauna play critical roles in various ecosystem functions and services, but empirical data measuring their impact on dung pat decomposition and subsequent nutrient cycling into rangeland soils are limited. The objective ...
Dung beetle assemblages attracted to cow and horse dung: the importance of mouthpart traits, body size, and nesting behavior in the community assembly process
(MDPI, 2021-09)
Dung beetles use excrement for feeding and reproductive purposes. Although they use a range of dung types, there have been several reports of dung beetles showing a preference for certain feces. However, exactly what ...

Selective defaunation affects dung beetle communities in continuous Atlantic rainforest
(2013-07-01)
Overhunting has caused severe decline or local extinction in many large-bodied mammals with direct consequences on plant regeneration, yet little is known about indirect impacts of selective defaunation on commensal species. ...

Influence of carrion smell and rebaiting time on the efficiency of pitfall traps to dung beetle sampling
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2009-09-01)
Dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) are very useful insects, as they improve the chemo-physical properties of soil, clean pastures from dung pads, and help control symbovine flies associated with bovine ...

Attraction of dung beetles to herbivore dung and synthetic compounds in a comparative field study
(Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 2017-04)
Dung beetles use a variety of vertebrate dung to provision their offspring. To locate these resources, dung beetles use volatile substances emitted from dung as cues. Although it has been shown in laboratory tests that ...
