Hybosoridae
Hybosoridae, sometimes known as the scavenger scarab beetles, is a family of Scarabaeiformia, scarabaeiform beetles. The >600 species in 78 extant genera occur widely in the tropics, but little is known of their biology. Hybosorids are small, 5–7 mm in length and oval in shape. 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 ...

Ceratocanthinae
Ceratocanthinae is a subfamily of the Scarabaeoidea, scarabaeoid beetle family Hybosoridae. It includes three tribes comprising 43 genera and 366 species; it was formerly treated as a separate family, Ceratocanthidae. Description Ceratocanthinae are small sized beetles from 2.0 to 10.0 millimeters in length. Adult beetles can be found on the bark and branches of dead trees and on fungus. Distribution Ceratocanthinae are relatively widespread. They can be found in Australian, Afrotropical, Indomalaysian, Neotropical, Nearctic, and Palaearctic regions. Ecology The adults have been found to Association (ecology), associate with termites and ants. Larvae live under bark and in burrows of bessbugs (Passalidae).

Scarabaeidae
The family Scarabaeidae, as currently defined, consists of over 35,000 species of beetles worldwide; they are often called scarabs or scarab beetles. The classification of this family has undergone significant change. Several groups formerly treated as subfamilies have been elevated to family rank (e.g., Bolboceratidae, Geotrupidae, Glaresidae, Glaphyridae, Hybosoridae, Ochodaeidae, and Pleocomidae), and some reduced to lower ranks. The subfamilies listed in this article are in accordance with those in Catalog of Life (2023). Description Scarabs are stout-bodied beetles; most are brown or black in colour, but many, generally species that are diurnally active, have bright metallic colours, measuring between . The antenna (biology), antennae of most species superficially seem to be knobbed (capitate), but the several segments comprising the head of the antenna are, as a rule, lamellate: they extend laterally into plates called lamella (zoology), lamellae that they usually ...

Scarabaeiformia
Scarabaeoidea is a superfamily of beetles, the only subgroup of the infraorder Scarabaeiformia. Around 35,000 species are placed in this superfamily and some 200 new species are described each year. Some of its constituent families are undergoing revision, and the family list below is provisional. This superfamily includes some of the largest beetles extant today, including rhinoceros beetles (Dynastinae), especially the Hercules beetle (''Dynastes hercules'') and the Goliath beetles (''Goliathus'' sp.). The oldest confirmed member of the group is the extinct genus '' Alloioscarabaeus'' from the Middle Jurassic period Jiulongshan Formation of Inner Mongolia, China.
