Dicranocara
''Dicranocara'' is a genus of Scarabaeidae or scarab beetles in the superfamily Scarabaeoidea. ''Dicranocara'' is endemic to the Richtersveld National Park. Three species are known, ''D. deschodti'' Frolov and Scholtz, ''D. tatasensis'' Deschodt and Scholtz and ''D. inexpectata'' Deschodt and Scholtz. Only ''D. tatasensis'' occurs south of the Orange River. The species in the genus live in close association with Rock Hyraxes (''Procavia capensis'' Pallas). These Hyraxes have communal toilets or dung middens. These middens are a stable and dependable food source for ''Dicranocara'' in a resource scarce environment. 〔Deschodt, C., Kryger, U., Scholtz, C.H.
