Note: Members of a species of dung beetle that lays its eggs in dung balls fashioned through rolling. Formerly called Ateuchus sacer.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 一種把糞便滾成球，並且產卵於糞球中的蜣螂。神聖金龜在古埃及時期被視為一種神聖的甲蟲，與清晨太陽神「開普立神」所彰顯的神性有所淵源。開普立神的名字即為聖甲蟲的象形符號。古埃及人相信破曉時，開普立神會在東方的地平線上方滾動旭日。 |
| Dutch ..... Leden van een mestkeversoort die zijn eitjes legt in mestballen die door telkens rollen hun vorm krijgen. In het oude Egypte werd deze kever als heilig beschouwd; hij werd in verband gebracht met de heilige manifestatie van de vroege ochtendzon, Khepri, wiens naam werd geschreven als de hiëroglief voor scarabee en van wie werd beweerd dat hij bij zonsopgang de schijf van de ochtendzon over de oostelijke horizon rolde. |
