Note.
To our knowledge, the only record of
Onthophagus hircus
for the research area is given in
Boucomont (1932: 326)
as
O. hirculus
for
French Guiana
. The lack of recent records makes us doubt its occurrence in the Guianas. We consider the presence of this species in the research area in need of confirmation.
