picture info	Hide Beetle Trogidae, sometimes called hide beetles, is a family of beetles with a distinctive warty or bumpy appearance. Found worldwide, the family includes about 300 species contained in four or five genera. Trogids range in length from 2 to 20 mm. Their shape is oblong to oval, with a generally flat abdomen. Their color ranges from brown to gray or black, and they often encrust their bodies with soil. They resemble Scarabaeidae, scarab beetles with heavy limbs and spurs. They are scavengers and are among the last species to visit and feed on carrion. They are most often found on the dry remains of dead animals. Both adults and larvae eat feathers and skin. Some species are found in bird and mammal nests. Details of the life histories of many species are poorly known, since many are specialized to particular types of nests. They are often overlooked by predators and collectors due to their behaviors of covering their bodies with soil and becoming motionless when disturbed. This group ma ...

	Phoberus ''Phoberus'' is a genus of hide beetle in the subfamily Troginae. It was initially a subgenus of ''Trox'' before taxonomists reorganized it into its own genus. The genus is monophyletic In cladistics for a group of organisms, monophyly is the condition of being a clade—that is, a group of taxa composed only of a common ancestor (or more precisely an ancestral population) and all of its lineal descendants. Monophyletic gro ..., with all species evolved from a single common ancestor. Most beetle species in the genus live in Africa. It contains the following species: : Phoberus aculeatus (Harold, 1872) : Phoberus arcuatus (Haaf, 1953) : Phoberus braacki (Scholtz, 1980) : Phoberus brincki (Haaf, 1958) : Phoberus bulirschi (Huchet, 2020) : Phoberus caffer (Harold, 1872) : Phoberus capensis (Scholtz, 1979) : Phoberus consimilis (Haaf, 1953) : Phoberus cyrtus (Haaf, 1953) : Phoberus disjunctus (Strümpher, 2016) : Phoberus elmariae (van der Merwe & Scholtz, 2005) : Phoberus f ...
