• Scarabaeine Dung Beetles (coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae): An Invertebrate Focal Taxon for Biodiversity Research and Conservation (2006, methodology): “…and have already been used in ecological research and biodiversity survey work throughout the world (e.g., Davis et al. 2001; Davis et al. 1999b; Davis et al. 2002; Escobar 2000; Favila and Halffter 1997; Feer 1999; Halffter and Favila 1993; Jankielsohn et al. 2001; Lobo et al. 2001; Rodriguez…”
• The Evolution of Animal Weapons (2008, background): “Although these beetles may have specialized originally on dinosaur dung, they diversified with the mammal radiation (36, 61).”
• An Overview of the Classification and Evolution of the Major Scarab Beetle Clades (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) Based on Preliminary Molecular Analyses (2006, background): “However, Krell (2000), Davis et al. (2002), Smith (2002), Philips et al. (2004), and others have since provided biogeographical or fossil evidence that the dung scarab clade and the phytophagous scarab clade both originated and diversified in the Cretaceous, not the Tertiary.”

• Parsimony analysis of endemicity (PAE) revisited (2014, methodology): “Species then became the most common unit, although occasionally genera and other supraspecific taxa have been used (e.g. Fortey & Cocks, 1992; Davis et al., 2002; Silva & Gallo, 2007; McCoy & Anstey, 2010).”
