    1. Yes! It looks very similar. There are some other genera in the tribe Phanaeini like this, as well. I'll have to work on taking pics of them bc I have several in my collection. Posted 2 years ago

        1. Beetles are my favorite insects and dung beetles are my favorite creatures on earth. So, I have collected lots of beetles over the years. Posted 2 years ago
