    This is not Bubas bubalus, but a male of the native Onthophagus leai, described by Blackburn in 1895 from Forest Reefs, NSW. It is only known from NSW, has a relatively small range. Posted one year ago

      It’s a long time ago and I can’t remember how I settled for Bubas bubalis. I do appreciate you finding the misidentification and I will fix it. Thank you. Posted one year ago, modified one year ago
