Name

• Onthophagus muelleri Novak, 1921:99

Synonyms

• Ontophagus novaki Boucomont & Gillet, 1927
  • Superfluous substitute name for O. muelleri Novak, 1921.
  • As pointed out by Krell (1990:107–108), Novak's name is not a homonym of O. mulleri
    Lansberge, 1883 under Art. 58 of the ICZN.
• Ontophagus novaki Petrovitz, 1963:236
  • This name, cited with "Müll." as the author, is an unavailable nomen nudum and probably an error for Ontophagus novaki Boucomont & Gillet, 1927.
