Abstract

This publication contains a detailed revision of two genera of Geotrupidae (Scarabaeoidea): Odontotrypes and Phelotrupes. The text is in English and includes a short introduction and taxonomic history of the two genera. Descriptions, label data, distribution, and illustrations are provided for all species in these genera. Although no generic descriptions are provided, a key to the eastern Asian genera of Geotrupinae provides the diagnostic characters need for identification.
