Twenty three species were collected, comprising the following genera: Digitonthophagus, Onthopagus, Dichotomius, Ontherus, Canthon, Canthidium, Ataenius, Aphodius, Pedaridium, Ateuchus, Trichillum, Coprophanaeus, and Megathoponina. Among the species collected Digitonthophagus gazella (Onthophagus gazella) was the most numerous, followed in decreasing order by Ontherus appendiculatus, Trichillum externepunctatun, and Dichotomius anaglypticus. The dung beetles with greater biomass were: D gazella (Fabr.), O appendiculatus (Mannerhein). D.analypticus (Mannerhein) e D. nisus (Germar). Most of the especimens were collected in the warmer and moister months in the year (February, March, April and December). During drier months, June to October, less than 20% of th total specimens were collected. Among the speceis, those with greater biomass were collected in the crepuscular-nocturnal period.  aBrazil  aColeoptera  aentomology  afeces  apastures  aScarabaeidae  aBesouro Coprófago  aCerrado  aEntomologia  aFezes  aPastagem  aAquidauana  aBeetles  aBrasil  aBrazilian savannas  aMato Grosso do Sul1 aKOLLER, W.
