naturespot.org.uk/species/aphodius-fimetarius This rather cylindrical looking dung beetle has an orange-red ribbed elytra with a black head and thorax. There are other similar species but A. fimetarius has an even border around the thorax which also has yellow side patches. Females are larger than the males, at up to 8 mm in length. They feed on herbivorous dung.
