Scarabaeidae is the chafers and dung beetles family of insects of the order Coleoptera. The members have the three distal segments of the antennae widened on one side to form a characteristic lamellate club. The larvae - known as grubs - develop in soil where they live on roots or are found in dung and other decaying organic matter. Research Scarabaeidae
