- THE FIRST DUNG BEETLE RETRIEVED FROM COPRINISPHAERIDAE ICHNOFOSSILS: PHANAEUS VIOLETAE N. SP. (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEINAE) FROM ECUADORIAN CANGAHUA BALLS Mario ZUNINO Biología Ecuador first finding Cangahua balls Coprinisphaeridae associated fossil Phanaeus A previously unknown species of dung beetle is described, related to a Coprinisphaeridae ichnofossils. Its discovery demonstrates that such structures really are fossil nests of Scarabaeinae beetles. The taxonomic and phylogenetic relationships of the new species are discussed, as well as some hypotheses about the biogeographical history of the Phanaeus chalcomelas species group to which the fossil species is assigned. A preliminary version of both the group’s track and Steiner’s areal tree is represented and compared to the phylogenetic and biographic hypotheses of recent literature. 2013 artículo científico 0065-1737 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57525802011 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=575 Acta Zoológica Mexicana (nueva serie) application/pdf Instituto de Ecología, A.C.
