“…Las restantes tres especies [Trox spinulosus dentibius Robinson, 1940, Omorgus suberosus (Fabricius, 1775 y Omorgus rubricans (Robinson, 1946)] fueron esporádicas con una abundancia muy baja. Resultados similares se encontraron para estas especies en un BP perturbado a 1.556 msnm en Jalisco, con excepción de T. s. dentibius que fue la especie dominante, superando incluso el número de individuos registrados para las especies de Scarabaeidae y Silphidae (González-Hernández et al 2015). Esta misma especie junto con O. rubricans fueron capturadas de forma abundante en bosque tropical caducifolio y pastizal entre 1.253 y 1.721 m en Malinalco, Estado de México, donde también se presentó O. suberosus pero con escasa abundancia (Trevilla-Rebollar et al 2010).…”

Resumen. Se comparó el ensamble de coleópteros de las familias Staphylinidae, Silphidae, Scarabaeidae y Trogidae atraídas a la carroña en un matorral xerófilo (MX) y un bosque de encino (BE) en el norte de Guanajuato, México. Se realizaron muestreos mensuales durante 11 meses con trampas cebadas con carroña. La riqueza de especies obtenida para cada familia, tanto en el MX como en el BE está en el rango observado en bosques templados y semiáridos de México, y corrobora el 100% de cobertura de la muestra. La diversidad (órdenes q=0, q=1 y q=2) fue significativamente mayor en el BE que en el MX. El recambio espacial fue el componente de la diversidad beta responsable de la disimilitud entre sitios (Β SNE =0,13); 33,3% de las especies fueron exclusivas del BE y 19,6% del MX. Ocho especies (Belonuchus sp. 1, Thanatophilus truncatus (Say), Onthophagus lecontei Harold, Rugilus sp. 2, Belonuchus erichsoni Bernhauer, Platydracus castaneus (Nordmann), Anotylus sp., Trox plicatus Robinson) fueron indicadoras (IndVal) del MX y cuatro (Nicrophorus mexicanus Matthews, Philonthus hoegei Sharp, Stamnoderus sp., Phloeonomus centralis Blackwelder) del BE. En el MX la riqueza y la abundancia fueron mayores en las lluvias, en el BE hubo menor variación entre épocas. Nueve especies se registraron por primera vez para Guanajuato. Esta investigación constituye la primera que realiza muestreos sistemáticos para el estudio de coleópteros del estado, por lo que la diversidad se incrementará conforme se exploren más sitios.

“…However, during the study period, precipitation at weather stations near each study site was greater at Gómez Farías (total annual precipitation range: 1612–1853 mm) than at El Madroño (total annual precipitation range: 467–1436 mm). Frequently, insect and invertebrate abundances are positively correlated with precipitation (Karban et al, 2017; Kaspari & Valone, 2002), including for some taxa in a variety of habitats in Mexico (Corona‐López et al, 2017; González‐Hernández et al, 2015; Noguera et al, 2018; Perez Hernández & Zarargoza Caballero, 2016). In addition, some potentially important insect prey items decrease in abundance with elevation in Mexico, especially near elevations of the El Madroño population (e.g., Longino et al, 2014; Meléndez‐Jaramillo et al, 2019; Sánchez‐Reyes et al, 2016).…”

“…The other most commonly used trap to capture dung beetles was NTP-80 (a model invented by Miguel A. Morón), a modification of the pitfall traps designed for the collection of insects with an affinity for decaying organic matter of animal origin, which can remain active for extended periods, and that has the main advantage of preventing looting by mammals attracted by the bait (Morón and Terrón, 1984). All the papers citing this trap were performed in Mexico (e.g., Trevilla-Rebollar et al, 2010;Deloya et al, 2013;González-Hernández et al, 2015), suggesting that it is a local modification that is not commonly used in other countries. Other types of complementary traps (e.g., aerial traps, light traps, flight interception traps, mini-Winkler extractor) for the capture of dung beetles are extremely limited because they usually incur extra expense and time, and generate discrete results in the effort and efficiency ratio.…”

IntroductionThe standardization of sampling protocols is imperative for robustly studying any taxonomic group. Replicable methods allow the comparison of data between different spatial and temporal studies. In the case of dung beetles, one of the best-studied indicator groups in analyses of environmental disturbance, a wide range of collection methodologies are used, from basic pitfall traps to more complex or complementary methods such as mini-Winkler extractor. Also, different types of attractive baits, sampling effort, durations, and designs are used in dung beetle studies. Variations in methodological approaches are particularly noted in the Neotropics, which may be related to the vast number of biological strategies and behavior of dung beetles that inhabit this region. A lack of methodological unification for the Neotropical region makes a cross-sectional analysis of the information impossible.MethodsWe performed a compilation and analytical review of the existing literature for dung beetle sampling in the Neotropics, discussing the most used methodologies, their advantages and disadvantages, and specific cases in which particular models are more efficient.ResultsPitfall traps baited with human excrement are the most common sampling method, but there is a wide range of models and variations in the structure of this trap. The complementary effect generated by flight interception traps, light traps, and direct collections, particularly within microhabitats, is exciting for the potential of finding new species. Some methodologies, such as mini-Winkler extractor, fogging, or very specific baits, are infrequently used.DiscussionThere was a lack of inclusion of spatial and temporal variation among studies. Therefore, it is necessary to consider broader sampling windows, which include different spatial scales, seasons, and years. Finally, we propose a standard protocol for sampling dung beetles in the Neotropics, depending on each objective, and including a basic methodology for obtaining complete local inventories.
