Treatment

Onthophagus buculus Mannerheim 1829: 40 (circa urbem Tijuco [= Brazil])

Distribution. French Guiana: Boucomont 1932: 321; Balthasar 1941c: 352. Brazil: Mannerheim 1829: 40 (circa urbem Tijuco [= Brazil Minas Gerais]); Gillet and Boucomont 1927: 204; Boucomont 1932: 321; Balthasar 1941c: 352; Blackwelder 1944: 211; Vaz-de-Mello 2000: 194 (as O. (Onthophagus) bucculus [sic]); Pulido Herrera and Zunino 2007: 98. Venezuela: Boucomont 1932: 321; Balthasar 1941c: 352. Other: Boucomont 1932: 321 (Argentina, Paraguay); Balthasar 1941c: 352 (Argentina, Paraguay, Peru); Medina et al. 2001: 139 (Colombia); Pulido Herrera and Zunino 2007: 98 (Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay).

Note. The only records of Onthophagus buculus for the research area that we have found are in Boucomont (1932: 321) and Balthasar (1941c: 352), with the latter probably copying the former. The absence of any recent records makes us doubt the presence of this species in the research area and we thus consider its occurrence there in need of confirmation.
