If dung beetles (Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) arose in association with dinosaurs, did they also suffer a mass co-extinction at the K-Pg boundary?
The evolutionary success of beetles and numerous other terrestrial insects is generally
attributed to co-radiation with flowering plants but most studies have focused on herbivorous …
