Deltochilum gibbosum, the humpback dung beetle, is a species of dung beetle in the family Scarabaeidae.[1][2][3] It is a member of subgenus Hybomidium Shipp, 1897[4][5] and is found in the southeastern United States.[5]
A variety described by Henry Walter Bates in 1887, D. gibbosum var. sublaeve, has been classified as a separate species D. sublaeve by González-Alvarado and Vaz-de-Mello.[5] The same authors regard D. gibbosum subsp. panamensis Howden, 1966 as a separate species D. panamensis.[5]
