Gazelle Scarab
Digitonthophagus gazella
Digitonthophagus gazella (common names: gazella scarab, brown dung beetle) is a species of scarab beetle. It belongs to the genus Digitonthophagus, which was promoted from subgenus to genus level in 1959. There has been some confusion regarding the application of the names with many people using the outdated name Onthophagus gazella. Dung beetle experts use the term Digitonthophagus gazella.
