Erroneous literature records for Venezuela
Roze 1955: 45 ( Venezuela: Distrito Capital: Caracas).
Actual distribution
Native to the Gulf side of Mexico, but introduced to several locations across the Pacific, including Hawaii, Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia, New Zealand, and the Solomon Islands ( Darling & Génier 2018). No Copris is known from Venezuela and Roze’s record must have been based on misidentification, likely of Dichotomius material.
No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009. Taxonomic information exchange and copyright: the Plazi approach. BMC Research Notes 2009, 2:53 for further explanation.
