A Corrigendum on:
The Taxonomic Revolution of New World dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae)
by Cupello M, Silva FAB and Vaz-De-Mello FZ (2023) 11:1168754. doi: 10.3389/fevo.2023.1168754
In the published article, there were two errors.
In the Appendix, it was incorrectly indicated that the oniticelline genus Anoplodrepanus Simonis, 1981 encompassed three species. The genus actually has only two, both endemic to Jamaica. The original error was a typo. Owing to this, the number of species stated for the subtribe Oniticellina, to which Anoplodrepanus belongs, and the tribe Oniticellini as a whole is erroneous; instead of 5 and 8, respectively, it should be 4 and 7. We thank our colleague Bert Kohlmann for calling our attention to this error. The text has been updated as follows:
Oniticellini Kolbe, 1905 (4 gg., 7 spp.)
Attavicina Philips, 2016 (1 g., 1 sp.)
Attavicinus Philips and Bell, 2008 (1 sp.)
Liatongina Philips, 2016 (1 g., 2 spp.)
Liatongus Reitter, 1893 (2 spp.)
Oniticellina Kolbe, 1905 (2 gg., 4 spp.)
Anoplodrepanus Simonis, 1981 (2 spp.)
Euoniticellus Janssens, 1953 (2 spp.)
The second problem, also in the Appendix, was the lack of indentation for the nominotypical subgenus of Dendropaemon Perty, 1830, giving the misleading appearance of its being a genus instead of a subgenus. The text has been updated as follows:
Phanaeina Kolbe, 1838 (9 gg., 208 spp.)
Bolbites Harold, 1868 (1 sp.)
Coprophanaeus dOlsoufieff, 1924 (50 spp.)
Coprophanaeus s. str. (38 spp.)
Coprophanaeus (Megaphanaeus) dOlsoufieff, 1924
(4 spp.)
Coprophanaeus (Metallophanaeus) dOlsoufieff, 1924
(8 spp.)
Dendropaemon Perty, 1830 (41 spp.)
Dendropaemon s. str. (9 spp.)
