Gymnetis pantherina meleagris (Burmeister, 1842)), Gymnetis rufilateris (Illiger, 1800), Gymnetis vandepolli Bates, 1889 (named as Gymnetis bajula vandepolli Olivier, 1789) from Mato Grosso do Sul State. From Minas Gerais State, Gonçalves and Louzada (2005) registered Gymnetis cupriventris Janson, 1880 and Gymnetis pantherina, while Puker et al. (2014) noted G. pantherina and G. undata (Olivier, 1789). The occurrence of G. undata and G. vandepolli in Brazil is doubtful since the Gymnetis review (Ratcliffe, 2018) registered the former to Caribbean and Guyana regions, and the last to Colombia and Central America. Evangelista Neto et al. (2018) collected G. hebraica, G. rufilateris, G. pantherina (named as G. rubrocincta (Schürhoff, 1937)), G. flavomarginata Blanchard, 1837 in Brasília, but the last species registered must be checked because G. flavomarginata possibly does not occurs in Brazil (Ratcliffe, 2018).Adult scarabs usually detect other scarabs, food sources, or nesting places by the detection of pheromones (
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
