Type species: Geotrupes pan Fabricius 1775 .
Enema is characterized by quadridentate protibiae, presence of a frontal horn in both sexes, broad elytra, bidentate mandibles, and the near absence of a prosternal process. Adults are nocturnal and attracted to lights, while the larvae probably feed on humus in the soil ( Ratcliffe 2003). The genus consists of two species, E. pan (Fabricius) and E. endymion Chevrolat ( Endrödi 1985) . Both occur in Brazil and the Brazilian Amazon.
