Scarabaeus (Scarabaeolus) scholtzi Mostert & Holm 1982 View in CoL

This species is only included in Scarabaeolus on the presence of the second mesotibial spur ( Mostert & Holm 1982). Forgie et al (2005) proposed to move it to Scarabaeus (Scarabaeus) as it consistently falls outside their “ Scarabaeolus clades”.
