The scarab beetles of Florida (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae): Part I. The Laparosticti (subfamilies: Scarabaeinae, Aphodiinae, Hyboso rinae, Ochodaeinae, Geotrupinae, Acanthocerinae)

Date Issued:: 1973
Abstract/Description:: Faunal studies are fairly complete for most part of the vertebrate animals, but deplorable for most invertebrate groups. Florida is an ideal state for faunal studies because it is a peninsula and is delimited on three sides. It is an important area from a taxonomic, ecological, biological, ethological and zoogeographic standpoint. This study is a compilation of all existing information about the scarab beetles, including both published and original data.
