 Comments
       
  Comment: No reason is provided by Smith (2009:43) for treating the senior name Onthophagus curvicornis Latreille 1812 as synonym of the junior name Onthophagus incensus Say 1835. It may be that there is a homonymy, or that the senior name is for some reason unavailable, but further research would be required to determine this
