Abstract
There are about 1000 genus-group names, available and unavailable, in the laprostict subfamilies of Scarabaeidae by 31 July 2025. Of these, 689 refer to currently accepted genera, mainly in the Aphodiinae (381) and the Scarabaeinae (283). A further >320 genus-group names are given subgeneric rank or placed in synonymy or homonymy. The chronology of descriptions of currently valid genera shows different patterns between the Scarabaeinae and Aphodiinae, with a significant increase in numbers of aphodiine genera since the 1980s due to the splitting of Aphodius Hellwig, 1798. We predict that discovery of new genera, as well as the potential for further splitting of mega-genera such as Onthophagus Latreille, 1802 with elevation of subgenera to full generic level, will continue the upward trend, albeit somewhat balanced by combining some of the numerous monobasic genera.
