Hybosoridae
Hybosoridae, sometimes known as the scavenger scarab beetles, is a family of Scarabaeiformia, scarabaeiform beetles.

Color ranges from a glossy light brown to black. They are distinctive for their large Mandible (insect mouthpart), mandibles and Insect mouthparts#Labrum, labrum, and their 10-segmented antennae, in which the 8th antennomere of the club is deeply grooved and occupied by the 9th and 10th antennomeres. The legs have prominent spurs. The larvae have the C-shape and creamy white appearance typical of the scarabaeiforms. The 4-segmented legs are well-developed; the front legs are used to stridulate by rubbing against the margin of the epipharynx, a habit unique to this family. Adults are known to feed on invertebrate and vertebrate carrion, with some found in dung. Larvae have been found in decomposing ...
