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 ...

	Trox ''Trox'' is a genus of hide beetle in the subfamily Troginae. Taxonomy In recent years, scientists have revamped the taxonomy of ''Trox''. The formerly massive genus, which boasted a whopping 160 species, has been cut down. Specifically, the subgenera '' Phoberus'' and '' Glyptotrox'' have been reelevated as their own separate genera, while various ''Trox'' species have been merged or otherwise combined. After taxonomic revisions, the genus ''Trox'' contains three subgenera - '' Trox (Trox)'', '' Trox (Niditrox)'', and '' Trox (Granulitrox)'' -, with the following species: Subgenus ''Trox'' '' Trox acanthinus'' Harold, 1872 '' Trox antiquus'' Wickham, 1909 '' Trox cadaverinus'' Illiger, 1802 '' Trox capillaris'' Say, 1824 '' Trox contractus'' Robinson, 1940 '' Trox coracinus'' Gmelin, 1788 '' Trox cretaceus'' Nikolajev, 2007 '' Trox floridanus'' Howden & Vaurie, 1957 '' Trox gansuensis'' Ren, 2003 '' Trox gemmulatus'' Horn, 1874 '' Trox horiguchii'' Ochi & Kawahara ...
