Abstract: Type specimens from the collection of beetles (Coleoptera) deposited in the
Department of Entomology, National Museum, Prague, are currently being
catalogued. In this part of the catalogue dealing with the Scarabaeoidea, we
present precise information about the types of 12 taxa of the tribe Onitini,
169 taxa of Onthophagini, 12 taxa of Phanaeini, four taxa of Scarabaeini and
one taxon of Sisyphini. The corrected spellings of species-group names
originally published as Onthophagus sürmelii Petrovitz, 1963 and Phanaeus
palaeno exisicornis Balthasar, 1939 are proposed.
